We've had some large rafters of wild turkeys feeding in the fields around our place since mid October. The Tom's haven't been gathering Hens for mating purposes yet but they will begin their gobbling and puffing up soon. Like most males under influence of female allure, they appear to lose half of the already limited intelligence they possess when showing off for attention from the ladies. Few people around here actually try to roast and eat these birds but they make good jerkey.
