This photograph was taken at Stag Bay near the Dick Parker logging camp buildings. The Mansons had raised some Bronze turkeys but had found it commercially unprofitable. These were some of the breeding birds. The gobbler, on the right, weighed 42 pounds. Here, May Freeman, L, Aunt Agnes (Jean Manson's aunt), and Wilfred Manson Jr. are feeding them. There is one White Holland turkey amongst them.
