We live in an older neighbourhood in the middle of the city so our typical urban wildlife usually consists of birds, squirrels, rabbits and the odd skunk. Well, we pulled in the driveway today and I saw a head sticking up from behind a pile of crushed stone in our driveway. By the time I got out of the car it had hopped up on the fence and into the back yard. I managed to grab a camera and get a couple of pics over the fence. This has to be a first for our neighbourhood!

TPM, I'd gladly ship you a few hundred more.... I hate those things. It is a big problem that every time we plant something the danged birds will scratch it up. I have to stand guard over any food plot for many days until the crop is up good else they will eat all the seed. Did I mention I hate those stupid birds?
I am sitting on my front porch looking at my hunting property, watching a massive fire work its self across the corn stubble, about 200 acres gone already. In a few minutes it will be a tad close to the bush too. Lots of firemen, lots of stopped traffic and cell phone flashes, but I am a bit reserved at this point if there are turkeys or not anymore.
Time to go scouting again!

Turkeys are strutting well. Was out last night until after dark to watch birds go to roost. They were roosting high in the trees last night, generally they roost on lower branches in the past but the weather was often colder.
Just a thought, with the weather so warm will this affect the breeding season in a short/faster way? Will toms have lost their prime drive as most of the hens will be nesting by the opening of the season? Or will this make the toms more eager to respond?
