Tn-birders,
For the past two months or so, I have had wild turkeys in my yard almost daily,
numbering from 3 up to the 30,s. Yesterday, 1-23-04 at 8:30am, I looked out
and saw turkeys in all directions milling about and feeding on something in
short grass as well as tall dead weeds. After counting and recounting, I came
up with the number 78. They stayed around about 2.5 hours, finally breaking up
into 3 flocks and wandering off. Al least 2 Jakes were strutting around each
other, but no adult males.
After they were gone, I tried to see what they were eating. In the abscense of
anything else, I guessed it to be just short green grass sprouts.
