Wild Turkey - Puff-Out Fantail

A cinematic portrait of the Wild Turkey, by Lang Elliott. Videotaped during light snow flurries on April 8, 2011 in upstate New York. Note what appears to be play behavior among females, with several chasing each other in circles (occurs about halfway through the video).
