Whoa, this is a first...likewise I had not idea they could even fly! (this is the avian equivalent of hang gliding in a bridal gown!)

Nice capture. I know they don't fly often. I've seen them in trees but figured they used ladders...John

Hey John,

thanks for the heads up on the ladder delio, it must be a rope ladder, I didn't think turky's could fly either until I saw one, I figured they were to darn big to get off of the ground

That's a once-in-108-lifetimes shot! Stupendous! Mark Twain himself would have to excavate deeply in his mine of superlatives to even make a feeble attempt to do justice in words to the magnificence of that picture. That's a world-class shot by any standard. My salutations to you for having the presence of mind to make such a fantastic shot of such a surprising event on the spur of the moment.

Wow!! you have an amazing talent to make the head swell quite rapidly, thanks for the amazing choice of words and taking the time to use them to describe this capture, thanks so much
