The only reason I noticed her was because I was going to pickup the'bark' that was on the dutchmans britches.That's funny about your bird. I guess if you think about it the turkey didn't have much choice. If it ran or flew the coyote was sure to see it. As I'm sure you know, animals can hide reeeally well too. I once had a big garden that was away from my house a bit. One day in mid-summer I went back and started working on it. After I'd been there at least 25 minutes this tiny baby deer jumped up out of about a foot of grass that I'd walked by many times. I never saw or heard mama but I know she was close.
