Nice bird first of all. Second of all cj is right that isn't a merriams. Looks more like a rio or a hybrid. Merriams have white tail tips. As for rio grande turkeys, the feathers right below the actual fan are a light golden brown, as for an easterns their feathers right below the actual tail fan are a dark brown and most of the time the tips of the fan are dark brown as well. CJ i'd say you shot a rio. Hope this helps
So you think they're BOTH Rios, then?
