"My Life as a Turkey"

(1/2) > >>

Pat B:
Wednesday night at 8pm on PBS.
 I saw this show about a man that raises a brood of turkeys and loved it. If you like turkeys you will love it too.  8)

A friend in here send me the DVD.  The best part was the private conversation sounds that the turkeys make to each other.  I have sat thru I-dunno-how-many viewings with various turkey calls trying to duplicate "turkey talk". 

The biologist in me had issues with the unsupported anecdotal claims he made, but I finally had to admit the guy is an artist, not a ornithologist.  Some amazing video shots, one of my favorites was a close up of a grasshopper on a leaf of grass as the flock walks by.  Suddenly a head flashes thru the screen and the hopper just isn't anymore!

Pat B:
 The photography was great. His thoughts were a bit out there but he lived with the turkeys for a year and had no contact with other humans so I guess he was off his bird a bit.  ;)

Keenan:
When I first read the title I thought you had wrote a Biography Pat.  >:D   Just kidding my friend. Sounds great

Pat B:
...I am a tough old bird!  ;D
