That sounds so interesting. We have all kinds of critters around here. The main visitors or I should say lodgers are a bunch of wild turkeys that have settled down here since early spring. Two toms and two hens. Now we have the addition of two chicks. Cute little suckers too. My question is two fold. Do turkeys nest on the ground and when fall comes will they move further south? They roost in the tall oaks just next to my house at night except the mama turkey, so I was wondering how they nest when they have little ones.
