Bush Turkeys

We went out this morning for a walk not far from home, Lucy loves getting out and about in the bush, there are less dogs to bark at her.

We parked the car at the end of a street and walked in the grassed area then we saw a bush track so we wandered off there. Lots of different smells for Lucy and us, as we could smell kangaroos, they do have a distinct smell that Warren and I grew up with up, we tend to forget that we know that smell. Its interesting when going to souvenirs shops selling "genuine kangaroos hides" products, we can tell if they are or not because of the smell. Anyway, it did seem that kangaroos had been in the area, they possibly shelter under the trees at night.

We also saw where bush turkeys had scratched leaf litter across the track, then just off to the side, there was a massive mound, probably a metre high and about three metres around. 
We didnt see the turkey itself.
