For the last month I have been hunting for turkeys in Dublin, California. I leave the office for my late afternoon walks, armed with my camera, and on the lookout turkeys!

About this time every year, a rafter of wild turkeys
assembles to forage for food. They roam the open land near the Camp Parks
training ground, and the new Alameda County, East County Hall of Justice. They invade
the landscaped areas of nearby business parks. The turkeys seem equal parts wary and
curious, but mostly intent on a good meal.
Apparently, turkeys can become aggressive, especially around mating season, but the ones I encounter raise their heads briefly to asses me, and then go back to their acorns, seeds, berries, small amphibians, and bulbs. Wild turkeys are beautiful and fascinating to watch.

Hoping you have a delicious Thanksgiving, surrounded by family
and friends. Thank God for life, be grateful for your blessings, and hold on to
hope through the inevitable rough patches!
