Ocellated Turkey?
I have never heard of the Ocellated Turkey of Mexico till now. This is one beautiful bird and Scott Haugen, the man who shot it, has a great story to go behind the picture as well as a couple other pics.
“These birds rarely respond to a call, never gobble, have no beard and the males are called males…not toms. The noises they make resemble nothing most turkey hunters are familiar with; but their beauty is second to none.”
The one he killed also has spurs longer than any turkey I have personally ever seen!

Awesome… thank you Mark. And tell Ol’ Bo that double bearded would be beaten if I was in the contest. 🙂
