• Early July: The poults hardly look like turkeys

• Early August: You can see the poults have grown, focused on the corn below the corn feeder while Betsy is looking at the corn cob on the grass closer to the patio, or maybe me holding the corn cob to lay in the grass.

• Mid September: Now the poults look almost like adult turkeys, eating from the corn cob rather than waiting for Betsy (on the right) to finish.

Hope you enjoy this pre-Thanksgiving column.
