Wild Turkeys and 7 young babes - Several shots

Surprised by 2 Wild Turkey Hens and 7 young turkeys in the the driveway yesterday.
Went to take the trash out and when I opened the front door, there they were 10 feet away.
They looked at me, I looked at them, and then I slowly backed into the house.

I ran upstairs to grab my camera, and by that time they were making it around the side of the house into the backyard and woods.

I got a couple shots there on the side, near the driveway.

Then, I had to go back inside and out to our deck so as not to spook them away. Here we can count the 7 babies.

Hunting Grasshoppers!

and finally, off into the woods.
