We have tons of those guys around here. (Of course, I'm rural, so there's nothing exraordinary about that)
An interestng fact, at least in this area - wild turkeys are drawn to fresh human graves. It's the turned soil that brings them. They pick through for the grubs and the roots and whatever other turkey goodies they can find.
It can be a bit shocking to see, a flock of 6 - 10 of them congregated on a fresh grave, scratching and digging, looking almost as if they're attempting to exhume the body.
I'll keep my camera handy to see if I can get a picture of this.
