Dang it Twin! You've got so many of the turkey birds around you gotta be careful. You want me to come over this spring and help you thin them out? Neat photo Mickey! Mike

LOL Mike those are the "front yard" gobblers. The hens were in the back yard.

Trouble is about 2 weeks before hunting season (pic taken March 24,2006)

they just dissapear. Happens every year. They come back in July and stay until early April. Then disappear until the poults are born, then they come back (pic taken July 14, 2006)

Mickey, I swear you have the only migratory turkeys i have ever seen. I wonder where they go when season gets close? Nice pics as usual.

Chad I think they go to where there are some open fields where they can strut and search for bugs. We still hear them gobbling on their roosts in the valley in the mornings, but after fly down they just head some other direction. There's a golf course behind the 90 acres behind me. I suspect they head up that way. If I didn't have to trespass to find out, I'd follow them some morning.
