These birds are omnivorous and can inhabit any area where food is available. Usually, they forage on the ground, but are able to climb small trees and shrubs searching for food. Their favorite food is acorns, nuts and seeds of various trees. They also consume a wide variety of grasses. Occasionally, these birds catch snakes, frogs and salamanders. Many birds are found in suburbs and even in the parks. Their populations can reach large numbers in small areas, if not controlled.

Wild Turkey Photo -
breeders, photos
These birds have excellent vision during the day, but don't see as well at night. They are also very mobile and can run at speeds up to 25 mph, and they can fly up to 55 mph. Nowadays, these creatures are hunted and have become rare. When the mating season arrives, anywhere from February to April, courtship usually begins while birds are still flocked together in wintering areas. After mating, the hens begin searching for a nest site and laying eggs. In most areas, nests can be found in a shallow dirt depression, surrounded by moderately woody vegetation that conceals the nest.
