I have the wing from a wild turkey, feathers included,  that was a present from an Elder.  The domestic turkeys can be quite dumb but the wild ones are sometimes referred to as, "grounded eagles" - powerful and intelligent.

HA Ha ! Thank you Lonewolf !! This, I shall never forget !! "Grounded Eagles" is a perfect description of these magnificent birds !! This is an easy one, but, which US President wanted these birds as our national symbol instead of the Bald Eagle.  ?

Opps .. He was not a President..sorry, let me rephrase "What Founding Father wanted The Wild Turkey as a national symbol ?"  P.S.  Wild Turkey's are powerful fliers, despite their clumsy appearance, and can fly as fast as 55 mph through the tree tops !!
