WTF?!?

Driving in to work today, I turned the corner from one city street onto another headed for the highway, and the traffic was stopped on both sides. I could sort of see flapping wings & my first thought was "f**king Canada Geese. Just run them over." Then I got closer. It wasn't geese.
It was 3 wild turkeys!
I've never seen wild turkeys just hanging out on the road, especially not in the suburbs. It was cool! Unfortunately since I didn't want to be late for work I didn't have time to pull over to take pictures. Dammit! This is why I carry the camera with me at all times and I couldn't even take advantage of it!

Oooh, camera envy! I've got a Canon Rebel for my "real" camera that usually has B&W in it, and a Canon G3 for my digital.
You need to help me convince Hellbob that a Digital Rebel isn't a luxury, it's a neccessity!!!
I'm not a bird watcher, in that I don't go hunt them down, but if I see them I watch them. :)

That digital rebel was the best purchase I ever made. I LOVE it. It might cost a lot in the inital purchase, but think of all the money you save on film and processing. With a digital, you can take multiple photos and not be wasting film, not wonder if you got the shot you wanted, really play with timing and aperture and see how the changes look as you take them, put on different lenses... the list goes on and on.

The problem isn't convincing him that digital is cool...I've had the G3 for either 2 or 3 years now. The problem is convincing him that I need another better digital!
When I do finally get a digital SLR it will definitely be Canon because of the lens compatability with the stuff I already have.
