Quite the beautiful bird. I can visualize some very special arrows fletched with that bird's feathers.

For those of you that are unfamiliar with the Oscellated Turkey, it is found primarily on the Yucatan Peninsula of southern Mexico. The NWTF have them listed as one of the species to make the "World" Grand Slam for turkeys, which would also include the Eastern, the Merriams, the Rio Grand and the Gould's which is also found in Mexico.  Neither Hens nor Toms have beards, and the Tom does not gobble as with the other subspecies.  

This is a true trophy with the stick and string.
