Sleeping “beauty” for Turkey Tuesday

Perhaps only a face a mother could love? 😉 

On New Year’s Day, a quick trip to the grocery store turned into a photo op for me. I take my camera with me just about everywhere and on this day, I was heading to the grocery store so I threw my bag in my truck.

After shopping, I took a detour through an area that has a nice open space and there I found the resident rafter of #turkeys hanging out in the neighborhood. They were very active, hanging out on an office building patio, walking on the sidewalks, giving some great poses, all with a suburban backdrop.

This particular tom was perhaps recovering a bit from too much partying bringing in the new year as he was quite tired.

Absolutely insane detail with my Canon EOSR5 camera and RF 100-500 lens. Taken in the Eastlake area of Thornton, Colorado.
