Well, i guess the photos need a bit of explaining.
I got home to day and took some pictures of my car (got them up in the general show rooms). While i was at it the turkeys came down and wondered around the apartment buildings where i live. So long story short, this gobbler finds this Ford f150s chrome bumper VERY interesting. The pictures take place over about a 10min span of time, while i gimped with the camera, thought of, and found my scope, and finally i walked down before he left.
sorry about the blurry scope pictures, thats the only thing that i could think of that would magnify the image well enough......

He(?) saw himself in the bumper and thought it was another turkey. As I am not really supposed to have pets here, I have been able to get away with having a really friendly parakeet. She goes crazy for mirrors and other shiney things that give her a glimpse of her reflection.
I have seen sparrows do the same thing with sideview mirrors on cars. Always good for a laugh

He was telling that other turkey to step outside so he could whoop his butt. I have seen that before. When I was a kid we went to some drive through safari and an Ostrich saw his reflection in our car window. That was pretty funny too.

that's soo funny!!! those turkeys look like they don't belong in that lust green tropic forestry. it wants to go back to the american heartland in the back of that ford. hahaha.
nah just kidding. i bet the turkey loves it down there. in poland, we get peacocks roaming around. beautiful creatures and you can get really close, but not too close.
