Ours come running to the deer feeder when they hear the spinner dispensing corn. Like a damn dinner bell.

It's a feeder, isn't that what you put it up for?

My home office has a glass door and they are constantly coming up to it and seeing their reflection and trying to fight themselves pecking on the glass. They will run down our driveway with us following them running for their lives instead of taking two steps off the driveway. They are one of the dumbest birds / animals there are.

Also this turkey had a bad day last year in the backyard.

Fall turkeys seem more dumb than Spring turkeys.

They seem to be dumb only when you arent hunting them. They run in front of and get hit by the truck more than me shooting them

Wherever you have a lot of turkeys, you're gonna have a lot of bobcats... Great pics of bob kitty with turkey wing!

I see a similar sight every few days driving near the backbone. There is probably fifteen of them.
