snood

For another close-up of this bird (a two-year-old male wild turkey, shot yesterday morning) see here.

I'm told that the fleshy projection above the nostrils is called a snood.

Will you eat this, it is the first time I see this so close....
Dave Bonta: I didn't shoot it, so no, I won't eat it. I have no objection to eating wild game when it's offered to me, but I'm afraid I'm not a hunter - not enough patience, and I'm a lousy shot.

I'm pretty sure they don't eat the head in any case.

Poor thing. Nice shot though.
