All photos today was taken in manual. Setting it in aperture priority was messing up the shutter speed, so I had to mess with the options in manual. It resulted in lesser photos, but at least most of them were usable. I only have 4 photos today, hope you enjoy viewing them! Del Valle Regional Park is located in Livermore, CA.

This was probably the best photo I shot of the turkey.
Turkey crossing the street. By the way, there were at least a hundred turkeys on the side of the road. They were eating, what I guess is grass. HAHA Cute! They weren't scared of me at all.
This one started running because I car was coming. The car stopped and waited while the some 20 turkeys crossed the road. LOL
Later the rest of the flock flew away. I quickly increased the ISO and decreased my shutter speed for the in flight birds. This was the only "usable" photo I had as the rest were blurry. I was really surprised I even got one! Really gotta thank my Canon EOS 7D for its fast shutter speeds. LOL
That all for the turkey photos. I hope I will get to see more turkeys in the future. :) They are really cute birds. Don't chirp that loud though, they were all like Gobble Gobble. HAHA Too bad I didn't get these photos before Thanksgiving, would have been more fit for the holiday. Oh well! Hope you have enjoyed viewing these photos!
