It's turkey season! Gobbler hunting opens on Saturday, but this is the only way I'll shoot one of these magnificent birds.

I only get to see them disapprovingly watching me carrying parcels out of the local turkey farm butcher shop.

@Insectra And you should hear the comments - "gobble gobble - look! that's Clarice's leg hanging out of that parcel! Bastard meat eater!"
I challenge rifle and gun hunters to take up bow and arrow for these slower, fatter "prey". That will also help their "return" chances...

@Insectra I guess I was comparing them to hunting deer (very fast) or pheasant and/or duck (very fast, very small target). Good capture by camera...I was just challenging the hunters who have a great advantage with a rifle compared to a bow and arrow.
