Turkey and turklettes with maybe an unhappy ending.

Put the game camera out to monitor a burrow on our property last night. Turned out to be a armadillo's home, but the camera running this morning wound up catching some other critters too.

Hope that isn't the mom turkey at the end calling to the little ones that wound up being fox food.
 
Her calls at the end of the video are a warning call they typically do when they are alarmed or don't like the situation.
 
It's amazing how the location and temp play into their breeding cycle. Here the birds are still courting and laying eggs. Typically they will lay an egg a day, and surprisingly they all hatch out at the same time.
