I first spotted the wild turkey under a pine tree along the Meadow Trail on Mt. Lemmon. There are several chicks with her, which are difficult to see as they walk near the Mt. Lemmon Sky Center.
If you look carefully, you can see three chicks in the weeds to the left of her.

Wild turkey with chicks,
Small in size cutting through weeds,
Follow her rear.
Hers, a graceful stride,
Chicks scurry not far behind,
Picking at the ground.
I follow awhile,
As she eyes my every step,
Shooting without gun.
