3.6 turkeys

The weather has turned sharply warmer in the past few days. All of the snow is gone except for a few pitiful piles of dirty ice crystals, shrinking by half each day.
This morning we had some visitors again; the first time we've seen a flock since late last fall. They meandered through the back yard, nibbling at the exposed, and fairly dry, grass. They were too much on their dignity to flee when they saw us watching, but they did find occasion to change direction and mosey on out of the yard at a somewhat quicker pace.

Those are 3 big turkeys. Seriously, the beards are quite long and that's an indicator. Wow.
