Country Livin'

Can you see em?  Look closely....there they are.....can you see em? 
As I was running an errand for a friend last week I spotted this whole flock of Jake Turkeys going from one pasture to another.
Jake Turkeys are immature male turkeys...you can always spot them as they are usually fairly dark in color while the hens are light to light brown.  Jakes also don't have well developed beards (a tuff of hair that projects from the front of the chest). 
I keep forgetting that I have a wonderful camera on my "smart phone" so that I can take these pictures at any time....and I also suck at picture taking but I'm learning. 
But this is the reason that I live in the country.  Where else could you see this?  One of the many reasons that I love being out here.
