Wild Turkey In Washington

Dec. 28, 2009 - PRLog -- With Thanksgiving gone by and Christmas around the corner, I began to think of turkeys and their place on the dinner table.

Most domesticated turkeys have white feathers, but some are raised with bronze or brown feathers. I asked my teacher whether she had seen a wild turkey before.

I had never heard of wild turkeys in Washington before, and my interest was spurred.
