I'm dreaming of a white turkey

Actually back when I had a few on camera down in central Texas . 3 jakes they were and had some close up photos of them at one time that I cant locate at this point in time .
But to be sure they stuck out like a sore thumb in the group .
All 3 were snow white and all 3 had jet black beards about 3 or 4 inches long .I imagine they were crossed with some domestic genetics some where along their bloodline ,but rather different to see out and about for sure .
hope you enjoy the photo and have a safe and happy new year

A game rich environment indeed. I would love it too. Thanks for sharing.

Always fun to see what appears on the cameras,curious to know if the white turkeys are true albinos ( pink eyes, feet ,and beak. ). Can you grab one by the leg for a look see ?

My brother-in-law had some pictures of a white turkey in a flock of black ones down here in south Arkansas. He only had it in a few pics, then he never saw it again.

those 3 birds never did show up on game cameras as I remember , the photo in the field was from my truck with a big zoom lens on a cannon eos and the other photos I had of them was when they came up to the house and ate from the bird feeder in the winter .
and similar to tenn titans bird they were not around long and just one fall and winter, I imagine they got eaten by something . they were not albino birds I do know that . no pink eyes .
