Right: Blank Left: Female game bird, probably turkey, with a brood of twelve young. The twelve nearly identical chicks stand in profile, facing the outer edge of the page. The mother has three distinct claws and an outlined beak. The mother turkey’s legs are outlined and filled in, to indicate this distinctive feature of turkeys. The babies are crudely drawn with simple lines for legs and beaks. Their plump shape makes identification easier. Karen Petersen shows a similar bird (Plains Indian art from Fort Marion, Norman: University of Oklahoma Press, 1983: 279), with three toes as distinctive, and also a white-banded tail, barely visible here. Making Medicine, one of the Cheyennes held at Ft. Marion, made a drawing of seventeen birds from the southern plains (Berlo 1996: 136). The turkeys here are consistent with his drawing. Media: They are all outlined in pencil and filled in with black ink.
