"Hold my beer, watch this!"
I was wrapped up in a blanket, freezing and snuggling in my chair when the boss began to give me a play by play of the wild turkeys in the rose bushes on the edge of the lawn. Finally it became irresistible to get up, get the camera and get some documentation of the crazy things these birds do in winter. They are plumb hungry. Here is a video of two of the dozen or so that came in, tight rope walking on the twigs as they pick rose hips.

Oh excellent! We can actually see them picking off those rose hips.
Cool!
I'm guessing they're getting mighty hungry this time of year.
Wonderful! I enjoyed this very much! THANK YOU!

Well, that's fun!
I've never seen that sight; thank you!
I haven't seen wild turkeys since moving to Alaska. Thanks!
WV: uncirrus = all the other kinds of clouds?
Very cool! Thanks for giving up your warm spot for this!
Cathy, I think the animals are very hungry indeed. They are coming right to the house and into the buildings. Poor critters.
Linda, glad you enjoyed it. Wish I could have better caught how very funny they were teetering around on top of that big rose bush.
June, we watched them for twenty minutes or more...so funny and right outside the window
Rev. Paul, uncirrus huh? We've had a lot of those. Glad to be of help in the turkey department
Lisa, thanks!
ScMomma, thank you! It was well worth it and I was feeling guilty anyhow.
