Wild Turkey (male) + VIDEO

Meleagris gallopavo

Description:

The wild turkey is native to North America and is the heaviest member of the diverse Galliformes. It is the same species as the domestic turkey, which was originally derived from a southern Mexican subspecies of Wild Turkey. - from Wikipedia

Notes:

This turkey came to visit in front of my house (well, following a female turkey). Even though my video is not a good quality, his display was spectacular to see. I put music to hide noise behind it.
