In the winter, park staff frequently see flocks of 15 or more turkeys. A group of turkeys is also called a gang or a rafter. Click "Older" to see a closeup of the tracks these turkeys left. MH.

Summary[edit] Description: English: Meleagris gallopavo Linnaeus, 1758 - wild turkey at the Tennessee-North Carolina border, USA. (23 June 2008) Birds are small to large, warm-blooded, egg-laying, feathered, bipedal vertebrates capable of powered flight (although some are secondarily flightless). Many scientists characterize birds as dinosaurs, but this is consequence of the physical structure of evolutionary diagrams. Birds aren’t dinosaurs. They’re birds. The logic & rationale that some use to justify statements such as “birds are dinosaurs” is the same logic & rationale that results in saying “vertebrates are echinoderms”. Well, no one says the latter. No one should say the former, either. However, birds are evolutionarily derived from theropod dinosaurs. Birds first appeared in the Triassic or Jurassic, depending on which avian paleontologist you ask. They inhabit a wide variety of terrestrial and surface marine environments, and exhibit considerable variation in behaviors and diets.

Description: This turkey scared the bejeezus outta me. I guess you could say the feeling was mutual. I actually saw a large group of them on the side of the road, but when I stopped the car they ran across the road and up a hill. I followed them up the hill, but lost sight until I stumbled across this one hiding in the grass. Date: 30 May 2009, 20:50. Source: Run!. Author: Matt Reinbold from Bismarck, ND, USA.
