Field Notes

Description:

This is a domesticated wild turkey at Pennings Farms in Warwick, New Jersey.
He is an older Tom but his tail plumage is clipped as so he doesn't go too far..

Habitat:

Farm

Notes:

I made the turkey call for a male competitor and he went ballistic himself, calling and strutting the whole time.. My little daughter got a kick out of it!!!
