Bird Watching: First time post - My Birthday Bird, 1 by Hineni

Well, I've been lurking here for some time now, really enjoying the pictures everyone brings to the forum. Today is my birthday, and I had a flock of wild turkeys come through the yard! A first for me. Here's one of them that got stuck in the yard and couldn't figure out how to get out, even though he *just* flew in a few minutes earlier, and his explorer buddy had *just* flown over the fence to re-join the flock. In another photo I see this one wasn't watching, so I guess he missed the 'how-to-get-out' motivational experience. He made such sad little sounds walking up and down the fence, looking at the rest of the flock. It made me sad, and I thought about trying to scare him to fly, but eventually he figured it out on his own and went runnnnning across the meadow to join the others.
