Love this link!
We have lots of turkeys strolling around. This one was found right next to the Limeridge open space.
Thnx Liam and Christy .!!
This is not a buteo feather! With that straight point, it looks like an exotic (for this American) turkey feather. Stunning colors!!
With that coloration, I would think it'd be an accipiter species.
