You asked why my choices were in the order they were.   Actually 2 and 3 were a tossup.  I like to zoom in and see detail.   Zoom in on #1 and look at the chest of the gobblers.   It just looks black with no separation of colors.   Now zoom in on the other two.   I can see the black tips and the other colors.  And it looks even slightly more pronounced in #2.
Thanks bud, I do appreciate it.

#3. #2 looks over saturated especially in the green and #1 is too dark

Thank you much, I feel the same way, I think both 2 and 3 are too bright.

#1 looks exactly like what it was - 3 hens on an overcast day.

To my eye (and it looks like I am in the minority) I see too much orange and not enough feather details in #3 and much prefer #2.  Like someone up thread said, it may be my monitor too.  #3 looks a tad too bright, even though I get the grass is a little washed out in 2, but my eye goes to the birds.

For me seeing the features of the birds is more interesting in this photo, unless you are trying to tell a story with darkness. So I like 3,2,1

No not at all, it is just how the original came out. I am trying to do my best to show the real colors of the turkey, I fear I went from to dark to to pale though so I want others opinion. The feathers almost look like a pheasant to me for some reason in 2 and 3 lol

The first pic does seem a little dark to me. I think somewhere between 2 and 3 would be perfect. Also I'm not a professional photographer so take my opinion with a grain of salt lol.

Thank you very much, each opinion helps me adjust. I have a problem with bright images (They hurt my eyes) which I recently found out may be because I have the beginnings of Glaucoma so others opinions will help me tune things better. Now with landscape shots I can take 3 images and different brightness settings and combine them to get a better image, I can't do that with a moving object though.
