Last few weeks of scouting… Still no BIRDS!

Post by yakman$ »

Not sure what going on here. My buddy keeps telling me there’s turkey at the farm but all I see is these black birds.

I thought turkeys were white! :wink:

Thanks to all for your comments.

The toms are always strutting their stuff side by side. Trying to impress the ladies or just sizing each other up.

It a dance marathon some times.

They fight a lot.

The toms can be quite rough and vicious fights lasting 4-5 minutes.

Nah, the black ones are not fit to eat. Get one of the white ones , with a plastic carrying handle on its behind. :lol:

PS Great pictures, even if you did have to bait them with birdseed.
