Just in time to miss the Bird challenge ... my son saw a bunch of wild turkeys this morning when golfing with a friend, but I missed out.

To me...this image just seems to be a little too busy. too much to look at. The "frame" is behind the main subject, and I think this hurts the overall image, in terms of the challenge. Otherwise, a wonderful shot of a turkey. <5>

Looks a little too heavy on the saturation. Makes it look like a setup in a museum.

The bumped up greens are quite jarring to my eyes, and overall, there's a lot of competition here for the image's focus point (as in a lot of distractions and my eyes don't immediately settle on the turkey. There also seems to be a slight blur, as if the turkey was in motion, that could have necessitated the use of faster shutter, etc. Why not bigger aperture and deeper bokeh? Nice turkey, though. Yumm...

Nice colors, but it's hard to see the "frame"
