Sorry about the double issue...these are turkey tracks

wild turkeys......wow.. hadent occured to me that there were wold turkeys....

The birds are native to the southern part of Ontario and have recently be reintroduced into the wild...they are doing fine and their numbers are increasing. May also be responsible for the increase in the coyote population too.

they are wierd looking things arent they Lori....taste good though.:-)

Yes, Sandra, they certainly are strange in many ways...their call is comical and sometimes eerie...their tails trail out behind them as they walk...but like a peacock, they fan them in mating displays. They can be aggressive too...but only if cornered and they are not the smartest creatures either. The poults are odd looking too... usually the babies of a specie are cute...like baby ducks or chicks...but turkey poults? ..uh uh!
