 Wild turkey tom in RMNP. At dawn. It was low light. Had to use ISO 640 to achieve enough shutter speed.

I've known some puffed-up "turkeys" in my life.... the human kind, who have an inflated concept of their appeal to the opposite sex. This poster is dedicated to them, although they would never get the point.

No offense to real turkeys intended.

Like the photo, set up and layout but the caption doesn't really de-motivate me.

Nice details on that turkey. It actually does not look as ugly as I remember them being.
