Tom, All Dressed Up for Courting

Wild turkeys are constant visitors to our daughter and son in law's place (on which our home is). This gives opportunity for photo shoots. I thought this tom was quite pretty all decked out in turkey finery as he tried to attract the ladies.

The lens used is not one recommended for use with the D850, but it did OK here.
