| Publisher Description: Turkeys are All-American birds, predating the European settlers. Turkeys, though misnamed, are a historical part of America and American Culture. These birds are the largest land birds, the most hunted, and nearly were lost to extinction by the late 1930s. They have keen eyesight (in color), keen hearing, and their reflex/reaction time puts humans to shame. This ability to avoid and outsmart hunters, avoid detection with camouflage feathers, and successfully reproduce offspring comes with a price. They are one of the most alerted, alarmed, and anxious birds in the forest. They are nature's nervous birds, but they will leave and disappear from the scene before you barely get a second look at them. |
