Description
In the wild turkey world, grooming is a collection of behaviors called preening. They include dusting, sunning, anting, feather preening, and stretching. These are especially vital to a turkey’s health and survival. Leg and wing stretching appears mainly to loosen and flex muscles in preparation for flight. However, stretching is also observed as part of the preening process. This stretching behavior likely helps provide space between each feather so each can be stroked and groomed effectively.
