Default Turkey fight!! Wow!

I came across a once in a lifetime situation a few weeks ago while in the woods! Instead of reposting all the photos, i will just post a link to my blog!

It was incredible!

Wow. Turkeys going at it beak to claw...

I walked up on some bucks going at it one time. Scared the @#$% out of me. I had a camera with me but i was so startled i didn't take any pictures.

Sent from my Droid Bionic complete with typos and sarcasm.

Wow, great story, and amazing pics. I've spent a lot of time in the woods around turkeys, and never saw anything like that.

Cools shots Mike.

They were saying to each other, I'm gonna bust your head.... no I am gonna bust YOUR head. While Mike was saying...just a little closer and I'll bust both your heads.

That was a Boss Gobbler being challenged. Turkeys fight just like roosters, or, two men fighting over a woman.
