Description

“Uniquely You”

Behold, the wild male turkey in all his grandstanding glory! Isn’t he a sight! Of all the birds I have photographed, there is none like him. His snood hangs over and extends beyond his beak. It’s how he expresses emotion. Red and long – ready for love or a fight. Short and pale – submissive or passive. Caruncles are the warty protuberances on the head and neck. Bigger and brighter (blue and red) shows a turkey’s genetic quality and health. And the hens appreciate that in a tom. And, of course, the turkey beard (which actually comes out from his chest). The beard indicates the turkey’s age. Longer = older. The tom turkey is built for his purpose. He’s no good at hovering like a hummingbird over a flower. He doesn’t soar like an eagle. He doesn’t run like an ostrich. He isn’t cute like a chickadee. He doesn’t coo like a dove or sing like a meadowlark. But he is who he is and proud of it. Strutting about without thought or care of how he’s looked upon (except maybe the hens). I’ve been called a turkey and have often thought of myself as a turkey, but I’m not. Instead, I believe the truth of God’s declaration of WHO I am and walk in the confidence of His opinion of me.
