Found it on some property the wife and I were looking at this past weekend.

Just curious, but interested in what types of birds are there.

Wild turkey?

Thanks!!

I’d go with turkey 1st, 2nd a hawk or owl. Good clues are what habitat it was in, slightly open field cover turkeys frequent?

Lots of trees (pines and hardwoods) near a large clearing. Elevation around 3300 feet.

Owl. I have two big barred owls in my yard that I've found feathers from that look similar.



I'm gonna vote for the funniest frog with the loudest croak on the highest log.
