Carrying the fire of liberty in our hearts & bellies and the passion of revolution in our souls will keep us warm.

That is a "bearded" turkey. Generally those are males. Females can have beards, but that is extremely rare.

We really need to harvest some of these birds. Its kind of a waste and like the deer they have ticks and lice. I would prefer traps in the city.
