Turkey Hunting Grand Slam:
In order to complete your Turkey Hunting Slam, you'll
need to bag all 4 of the US Turkey species: Osceola,
Eastern, Rio Grande and Merriam Turkey. After you get
those 4, you can also get the Gould's Turkey native to
Mexico. In Florida, you can hunt the Eastern Wild
Turkey and the Osceola Wild Turkey.
 The
Eastern Wild Turkey is found in eastern states
including Florida. The Eastern Turkey has chestnut
brown-tipped tail coverts (smaller feathers which cover up
larger ones) and dark-buff or chocolate-brown tail tips
characterize the most abundant and most widely hunted
turkey, the Eastern Wild Turkey. The tom turkey’s breast
feathers are tipped in black, while other body feathers are
colored with copper or bronze metallic iridescence. The
primary wing feathers have white and black bars that extend
to the feather shaft, while the secondary wing feathers
mainly have prominent white bars. This results in a white
triangular area on each side of the back when the wings are
folded backward. Hens are browner with less brilliant
iridescence and the breast feathers are tipped in buff or
chestnut. The Eastern Turkey can weigh from 8 to 25 pounds
and grow as tall as four feet!
 The
Osceola Wild Turkey is located in central and
southern Florida. This turkey is smaller and darker in
color than the eastern wild turkey and has less white
veining on the quills. The average adult bird weighs from 6
to 16 pounds. The Osceola Turkey prefers to swamplands and
a moist, marshy habitat.
