## Caption

As we head into Thanksgiving weekend, meet the real stars of the season — wild turkeys! These feathered icons aren’t just famous for their fan-shaped tails; they’re also surprisingly speedy (up to 20 mph on foot!) and excellent fliers when they need a quick escape.

Happy almost-Turkey Day!
