Turkey Track?

[campkopasquat]

This is a photo of a track I found this past weekend on a road in my property. I walked in one direction for about a half a mile following some moose tracks on my road. I didn't see these other tracks until I turned around and was heading back. They went down the road for about a 1/4 mile.

My guess is it's a turkey, yes? Never seen turkey tracks before so I'm not sure. The plastic case in the photo is about 4 1/4" long.

Thanks, Spike. Looking forward to it. Need to supplement their diet.

and as far as the track goes....

I thought it might be you, lol.

Can you tell if that's a Jake or a hen?

It looks like a tom or jake track campkopasquat. When the middle toe is longer than the other two it's a jake or tom. When the toes are all the same length it's a hen.

Good find.

Looks like a young "Big Bird" to me.Maybe sesame streets muppets were in town.

Nice find Camp.
