That is wild, though.

I have seen them fly across the Mississippi River, almost a mile.

Was that taken on a lake in Scotland?

Yeah and from a bass boat.

I was going to say the turkey probably just got his feathers saturated and was floating around with the wind but then he started hauling arse.
I imagine that's something an alligator dreams of.

Five or six years ago I was hunting the backwaters of the Big Black when it was flooded and I got on a turkey mid day that was red hot. He came in and I had set up to shoot across a flooded slough if he came from that way. He came in saw my decoy and without thinking swam the slough to get to the decoy. I am not sure one person has believed me over the years... now I have proof he wasn't the only turkey that could swim!

Dad caught an owl on a top water plug one day. It swam to shore after dad unhooked him.

Yes. Yes I do unfortunately.
Years ago I ended up folding one like a goose after a missed shot over a pond. He hit the water and had his head up in the middle of it. I was gonna shoot again but waited as he began to swim towards the bank. I let him get to the edge then finished him off. I hung him up and used the leaf blower to get a presentable picture.
Wet turkey is an ugly turkey

I was fishing at Saline once in one of the bayous and there was an owl laying on top of water with his wings spread out.I theorized he was trying to catch a fish on the surface and crashed on the water.
I had had the trolling motor down and went towards him to get him out of the water.
I got close and he took off up from the water,no problem,and flew off?
