This is a group of regulars, stopping by from time to time for a few years, mostly in winter. I went out to clear the ice and snow off the boat and the turkeys had come to visit.

The deep snow makes it hard for them to feed in winter. I had bought a 50 pound bag of cracked corn earlier and left a few small piles. I went inside and came out with a few bucket and made new piles. Not only were the turkeys unafraid, they stood 4-6 feet away ran toward me when I dumped the second bucket.

The scuppers had some ice that I needed to clear so I spent a bit of time on the boat. The turkeys completely ignored me.
