    Don't mean to make you cry but this is my back yard the other day and during season but I left them go since it was the first time they stop since I moved in. I get anywheres up to 250 pictures a night on the game camera and here are a few. The video was funny as you will hear my 9 year old upstairs say,, There doing it again. She came downstairs asking what they were doing and I told here playing Leap Frog. Of course my oldest was yelling, aww grose, thats sick and I had to tell her to stop so the little one quit asking why.

    Every day its like this. Rick B

    Tried to get a buddy his second ever turkey... had one roosted last night, snuck in close this am and waited for the show. He cranked up at 6:06am and finally flew down at 6:34am. Steady walking away from us. We headed into the swamp and got close. Fired up the hen but she wasn't going to share her beau with the new hussy in the neighborhood. Let them work off and tried to intercept back at the roost. Didn't hear a peep this evening.

    My dad was involved with putting carcasses in the woods to attract them in that area of the Reservation. The state does a large round up from the highways just for this special occasion. People are clueless to why they show up in hoards in this one area every year. I have a childhood friend who has lived here for 10 years just down the road from me and he refused to believe me until my father told him.
    My understanding is they never really leave but only show up for the feast. I will say in the winter you don't see as many flying around but you do occasional see them.
