    You never think of Turkeys flying

    Had one fly out of the bushes and clip the top of the door frame with the window open and left feathers in my truck a couple inches lower and that sucker would have been in my lap

    Watch for them when you're in your boat also. A couple of times I've seen turkeys fly low over the water to cross a small cove or a river.

    I’ve had several close calls on my ridge with them, but never that.

    Our wild turkeys fly as good as grouse. They take off loud and will fly very high to get in trees from the roadside or keep going till you can see them.

    I have heard of pheasants under glass but that’s the first turkey in glass I have seen.

    BTW turkeys are one of the fastest flying game birds we have in America. I believe up to 45 mph.
