Don't think that turkeys will eat Rocket J Squirrel, but the squirrels will sure eat the corn and bird seed, as will as Bambi and Yogi. As the bears come out of hibernation around here, It's always comical to hear bird lovers distraught about bears ripping their bird feeders down and cleaning them out, almost as funny as folks being upset that the squirrels know how to clean out their "squirrel-proof" bird feeders, which also don't stop Rocky Raccoon either, and Mickey with his family can be found picking up seed that have fallen on the ground. Never could figure out why people dump hundreds of dollars to feed the birds and expect only birds to belly up to the breakfast bar.

Funny how people don't know what critters like too eat

Turkeys eat just about anything, corn, bird seed, acorns, bugs, ticks, worms, wild strawberries, wild cranberries and even my blueberries!!

Put a net over your blueberry bushes ?

No real need Mike, they're high bush blueberries and the turkeys keep to the "low hanging fruit", usually the berries that I find too much of a pain in the back to pick anyway.

I think the Guard Fox family has new kits, been seeing Dad crisscrossing the backyard 3-4 times a day now; it's tough feeding a family. He did score a nice baby woodchuck the other day. Natural rodent control, I love it!!!

And then there's the Buffleheads trying to score a mate for the year. They'll be gone soon and will be missed, but as the Buffies leave, the alewives return and we all know that means break out the bass gear!!

I was going to say that they couldn’t be too far behind. I saw one building it’s nest on the Cape in Chatham at the beginning of the month.

I flattened one of those the first year I moved down here. Came around corner & there were a flock of 'em in the middle of the road. No time to brake - tried to go around them but they covered the whole road. Must have been 50 or so.

Surprised I only got one of them. Was picking feathers out of the Jeep's wheel well for 2 or 3 days.

I have to cross them from time to time. Just like those poor little turkeys were doing. Let’s move this to the chat thread.?
