In late February I made a trip to South Dakota to visit my parents. The neighborhood where they live is right on the edge of town, and their property backs up to a wooded hillside. Due to their proximity to this forest, my parents see all sorts of wildlife, but their most frequent visitors are the deer and wild turkeys. On this day, I witnessed a large flock of turkeys hanging out in my parent's backyard, the male toms all fluffed out, trying to impress the ladies. One of my brothers does a very realistic turkey call, and is always successful in getting the birds to gobble back. Although I'm nowhere near a decent gobbler, I decided to try my hand at turkey talk. The two videos below were my results:
Linda, your turkey videos made me laugh. I went to a nature park here in Montreal years ago and I got into a conversation with a turkey. They are hilarious 😂
