    For a month now, I have been trying to get some decent pictures of a flock of wild turkeys that come through my yard. They have been through 3 times. The first time I got some pics with my old camera, but you could barely see them. Then 2 weeks ago, they were in the driveway as I was coming home from in town. They were between me and the house, which was where my camera was. Last night while I was at a Legion meeting, they were in the front yard again. So this morning I baited a bare spot with some sunflower seeds and cracked corn. Now to wait for them to come through and find it. Hope the squirrels don't eat it all first! Hehehehe
