A wild turkey and a partly-grown chick in a grassy lawn

Aug 7th, 2003, by Alex Zorach

I saw this wild turkey in my grandmother's yard, in Georgetown, Maine, with a single, half-grown chick. Wild turkey chicks start out considerably smaller than this, but rapidly grow. This one is just at the stage where it begins to look a little more turkey-like and less chick-like.
