Wild Turkey Inspects My Car At Long Island New York Home — IMRAN®

Wild Turkey Inspects My Car At Long Island New York Home — IMRAN®

On July 2, I stepped outside and found this wild turkey strutting around my car like it was performing a driveway inspection. No drama, no buildup — just a perfectly timed pre-July‑4th‑weekend cameo from a bird with zero respect for personal space.

In 31 years of living at this home, I’ve seen small foxes, regular herds and even an albino-like deer, unwelcome raccoons, rapidly multiplying rabbits, even more unwelcome large flocks of migrating geese who destroy the grass, some pheasant like birds, but never this bird. 

I don’t drink, but with America turning 250, even I had to laugh. If I were a drinker, this would’ve been the universe’s cue to pull out a bottle of Wild Turkey bourbon and toast the bird for showing up so perfectly on brand.

Tampa Bay Residents Suffering From Florida Winter Weather - IMRAN™

This was the scene on a typical winter morning on Tampa Bay in February. I had not flown my DJI M3P drone in a while, and this seemed like the perfect day to do it. Notice the way we suffer such weather.... by going boating or to the beach, for example.

Lovers Cry Out In Unison At Dusk, As Pelican At Singing Sunset Hovers Like Humming Birds - IMRAN™

Lovers Cry Out In Unison At Dusk, As Pelican At Singing Sunset Hovers Like Humming Birds - IMRAN™

Sunsets sometimes sing silently, as flapping pelicans in a chorus hover across the crescendos of red and gold clouds,. The dusk settles into its gentle chorus, singing a sweet lullaby of love and passion, odes to dreams and desires, unloading beams of lights and hard shafts of shadows, as the sultry night serenades the hot sun, and the wetness of Tampa Bay is coated in the hues of solitude, soaking in the whiteness of life into the blend of ecstasy, Come, my loves, be mine, at sunset, where fantasy becomes reality, and reality becomes you, and you become mine.

National Pet Day. Two “bird(s) in hand(s) better than (four) in the bush” they say. But the other four are welcome too!...

Bird(s) On A Wire, Not Ducks In A Row

I flew back to New York on Valentine's Day, 2009. After getting home, I drove to the dock near my home to catch these birds on a wire, sitting like ducks in a row, against the backdrop of a pink dusk and deep gentle blue sky. Taken with my pocket Nikon S6.

Do check the previous amazing shot in the photostream.
