Presumably this is a hen and three poults. There were five, earlier in the season. It's not unusual to for several to be lost in a year. They have grown quite a bit!

She's lost two, how thoughtless of her.....and to think it isn't even Thanksgiving yet.
Manxxman stole mine. Damn.
how exciting! well, they are birds afterall.
We have lots of wild turkeys in the area. I never realized how much they walk like dinosaurs ... until I realized that I have no idea how dinosaurs walked! It is just that my image of dinosaurs walking is influenced by the movies that have dinosaurs walk like large birds -- like turkeys.
I do have to warn you that, based on my experience, it is easy for a blog to turn into a bird-log.
Enjoy!
PS -- Who knew those beautiful little hummingbirds were so danged aggressive?
We have a family of turkeys who wander through the neighborhood now and then (more often, I suspect and we just don't notice).
We've got a hen and six...but i had no idea the young'ins were called "poults". Thanks for teaching me something.
