..and then a nice little blizzard hit upstate NY where we have been doing field work for the last couple weeks.

Bah.

Two of my coworkers are really big into hunting and fishing and watching them get all excited about animal tracks and spotting game is really funny and endearing. One of them spotted this turkey roosting in the tree while we were out at one of our sites.

The male turkeys are starting to display and I didn’t know this before, but I am told that “turkey hunting season” starts in the beginning of May. Guess who I found that out from…

But what I think is odd is that we associate turkeys and displaying males with fall and thanksgiving…not spring when they are actually doing the mating displays.
