Needle felted Wild Turkey. My first needle felted bird sculpture with moveable wings. Unlike the domestic bird, Wild Turkeys are leaner & more muscular & can fly 50 mph. Domestic fowl are often too heavy to achive flight & have reduced walking & running ability, one reason organic farmers have opted for "heritage" breeds instead. Typical color of Eastern Wild Turkeys is dark, while domestics are usually white. Fun fact: Turkeys can extend & retract the fleshy snood on top of the beak, & along with the wattle, change its color. What may be seen as just an unattractive ornament is actually used for communication, ex: a bright red extended wattle can be a display for females or ward of males or enemies. SOLD on eBay.
