Preening is a form of self-care wild turkeys do for hours daily. Spreading oily secretions from the uropygial gland onto feathers while arranging them with the beak keeps feathers in top-top shape! Anyone seen turkeys preening lately?⁦@wildturkeylab⁩ ⁦@NWTF_official⁩

Dust bathing is something all wild turkeys do, the dust helps maintain feather condition. Some dusting also occurs in ant mounds, the ants crawl on the bird and help control feathers mites. Who doesn’t love wallowing in the dirt? ⁦@NWTF_official⁩ ⁦@wildturkeylab⁩
