I remember a story about Ben Franklin wanted to make the wild turkey our national bird. He described them to someone on the west side of the Appalachians as a big dark bird with red on the head and they taste great. The guy from west of the Apps said they have them, too, and they taste like shit... he was talking about the vulture. I always thought they tasted about like owl.  |

Had them drying their wings this morning right outside the house. I still think they are pretty cool. I've never eaten one so I couldn't tell ya if they taste like Spotted Owl or not...   |

One of my first turkey hunting escapades we ‘roosted’ a group of birds in a dead tree. Snuck in Uber early and could not get them to gobble. Hour after sunrise they did the spread my wings to dry deal.
They were turkey buzzards, not eastern wild turkey.
