This it what greeted me this morning as I went outside to get the paper.

There are at least 30 Turkeys. Usually we only get less then half that.

What a sight.

We have had a high turkey count this year as well. From early fall to as late as yesterday, they’ve been all around our house. Curious bunch.

Maybe more hunters and an increased limit…

I have friends in the fish & wildlife regulatory world. They have been complaining about turkeys being an invasive species west of the continental divide for 40 or so years. That is a bunch of turkeys!
