Nice capture - incidentally, do you know why they crossed the road? We have a mom and 2 chicks hanging in our back yard these days.
Mick Anderson replied:
Well, Donna, I think they crossed the road to get to better cover and food. Whatever the reason was, they certainly put on a nice show for me :)))
Lucia Stewart
Aaaw so adorable!
Mick Anderson replied:
And it was so cool that they crossed the road while I watched with camera in hand :)))
Kathy Barney
Oh my gosh! This is great! I've seen plenty of geese do this, but never with "turklets (chicks). Great capture. lvf
Mick Anderson replied:
Kathy, we have quite a few of these birds in this part of Oregon, but catching them cross the road was a unique opportunity, for sure!! Thank you for the kind comment :))
Sandi Mikuse
Ha! Mick! I love this!!! I have never seen a baby turkey before! Good for you to take this awesome opportunity to capture this little family on it's expedition across the road...and so glad to know that they made it across safely! I just smile when I look at this! ;-) V
Mick Anderson replied:
Sandi, I was very fortunate to have this happen right in front of my camera, for sure!! Thanks for the visit :))
Laurie Search
Awww, so cute!!!! :)))v
Mick Anderson replied:
And this shot (one of many!) fell in my lap!! I was leaning against the back of my SUV, the weather was perfect, no wind, and I could hear the click of their feet on the pavement :))

They are adorable to watch! This is about 5 miles from my house, and there are a lot of turkeys in the countryside near my town :) Thanks for the nice comments, Karol !!

This happened to my wife and I just outside of Olympia, Wa. We stopped for a family of ducks going across the road along with about 30 other cars! All of us that could see them just laughed. Pretty cool way to have a traffic jam.
Mick Anderson replied:
Yes it is! Thanks for sharing your story :) I was the only one on that road with the turkeys... and I would have loved to have seen your traffic jam!!
