Was that a hawk trying to take down that jake turkey? I didn't think they'd tangle with something larger than them. **Edit** When I froze it, it looks like a great horned owl, still didn't think they'd go after a mostly grown turkey.
I also liked the two bears at the end. Wonder if that 2nd one was a boar following a sow. He seemed like he was breathing pretty heavy.

Kingfisher. My favorite birds. There was a clip later on with two of them fighting over a fish. Love them.

Owls are thought to be the chief predator of turkeys, chicks and adults. Though, the common belief is the adults are most at risk while roosted.
