Turkey Watch - A tom turkey leading several turkeys through the woods, is spying on the turkey hunters. He has scoped out some good foliage, a small hedge and several piles of fallen leaves. If the hunters come their way, he hides under the leaves beside a small hedge. Some powdered cayenne has been sprinkled around the nearby forest floor to distract the dogs. Since the hunters are nearby, all the turkeys should be hiding.
A detailed ink-and-wash illustration in a muted color palette depicts a woodland scene with three hunters and several wild turkeys. In the foreground, a turkey with ruffled feathers and a red-and-blue head stands beside a dense green bush, partially obscuring it from view, while another turkey peeks out from a nest of dry, brown autumn leaves at the base of the image. Several other turkeys are visible in the background among the foliage. To the left, a muddy trail winds through the trees, where three hunters wearing caps and backpacks walk away, accompanied by a spotted dog that is sniffing the ground. The overall atmosphere is subdued and rustic.
