Four wild turkey females on the prowl for bugs, likely. These four aren't tame, but they are pleasant as can be compared to the posse of males that roams the property. Those fellas are downright mean. I'll try to get a photo of the posse chasing some of the ranch hands if I can. It's quite funny when it's happening to someone else, less so when it's me.
You can tell these are females due to the lack of a wattle, small snoods, and their smaller (compared to a gobbler) head which is a blueish gray compared to a Tom's big ass red, white, and blue head. Their overall size is a giveaway, along with their comparatively drab coloration which is used as camouflage when nesting. These ladies probably top out right around 8-10lbs while the boys get around 20-25lbs.
There's a lot here- emu, cattle (both Brahman and Santa Gertrudis breeds), peafowl, turkeys, deer, nilgai, birds birds birds, and a whole heap more. Even snagged an invite to join a couple of very enthusiastic birders for a weekend bird watching trip. I am excited to go look at some birds with some folks who've been at it a while. This is my first time doing anything other than solo.
Anyway, turkeys.
Edit - just realized the one bringing up the rear is giving me the side eye.
