RE: WILD TURKEYS

in #nature7 years ago

We have large flocks of wild turkeys in our area. The toms certainly seem to be camera-shy when displaying their lovely feathers. Sometimes the flocks spend a great deal of time in our yard. We had to put extra fencing around our garden to deter them from walking right in and ruining the plants. They can still fly in, but usually don't bother. Like deer, turkeys are beautiful when they are minding their own business and not trying to destroy one's garden. If I am going to preserve the produce for my own family to eat all winter, I have to keep the wildlife out all spring, summer, and fall. There's plenty out in the fields and woods for the critters to dine on instead!
