Wild Turkey

FEMALE EASTERN WILD TURKEY (MELEAGRIS GALLOPAVO SILVESTRIS), SILVER CITY, MICHIGAN, JUY 25, 2012 

Pentax *ist DS
SMC-DA 50-200 at 200mm
1/1000 sec. f8
ISO 800

Keeping an older (circa 2003) 6-megapixel camera with an inexpensive kit zoom lens in the car occasionally pays dividends. The combination can still produce decent photographs even when they are heavily cropped, as this one is.

The eagle may be more majestic looking, but that turkey sure looked like she knew where she was going, strutting and holding her head high!
