unusual tracks

While walking today in a wooded area next to an open field I noticed tracks I did not recognize. It looks like a large bird track but not sure. It has 3 toes with the center toe being twice as long as the other 2. Any ideas? Walked all over in the open field in and out of the woods.T

Were the tracks in snow or wet soil? Possibly turkey tracks.
