At Bosque del Apache, there is a tree where turkeys roost alongside Bald Eagles. In a closed area there, I have seen as many as about 200 flying up to roost in the Cottonwoods. Nice to get their silhouette with heads turned.

Great silhouettes and mood. The first time I saw a flock of Turkeys fly up to roost in trees, I was surprised, too.

Nice silhouettes and I like the color of the sky. Have also seen them roosting very occasionally. Nice work!
