Title: Turkeys in my back yard . . .
Post by: Frogman on August 21, 2010, 04:59:17 PM
Recently we have been seeing lots of turkeys near my house.  Usually it has been some hens and several poults.  Sometimes they even cross the road between my house and the neighbor across the street.

Usually we see them behind the house like this . . .

Then this evening we saw some gobblers running around.  Two of them got in a fight right below the back deck . . .
