and here they are now....
they are all the same size.
What has amazed me about these turkeys is the way they travel as a family. Mama and Papa turkey are with them all the time. Mama in the lead or close to it, and the Tom always bringing up the rear. While he doesn't seem protective about them, there must be some atavistic impulse driving him to stay with and protect his offspring. Amazing.

Strange birds, aren't they; as a child,I was very scared of them.
I only knew the white turkeys at a farm in upstate NY. Never knew that they grew wild..but I'm scared of them now - they can chase you!
