Oh and this guy up in Livermore the other day.

Great photos! Wild turkeys are really beautiful.
Finally had an opportunity to take a picture of one of the many bald eagles that hunt along the Clearwater River. But he was a LONG ways away. He was on the side of the hill opposite our house. There were a pair apparently feeding on a dead deer up there. We couldn't see them on the ground because they were behind brush. Coyotes ultimately chased them away from the kill and began dragging the deer away. One eagle flew away, this one stopped briefly in a nearby tree.
This guy was captured from 778 yards according to my rangefinder. Not a great photo of the eagle but I finally got one.

That's a pretty sweet picture for 778 yards away!
I had to take about 20 to get a recognizable picture. I had the camera on full 120x zoom and couldn't hold it steady in the wind. Photo editing software helped, too.
This guy and his dinner guest rapelled onto my workbench right in front of me. He drug his meal off the edge and fast-roped to the floor. I think that's a big fly he's got but not sure.

Today is the first day I noticed the deer in my area are starting to drop their antlers.

Time to start looking for sheds.
The ground was alive with very large earthworms tonight. Free entertainment for the Corgi...and Mrs BG and me, too.
Reminded me of Tremors...on a smaller scale:
