[QUOTE="Henry, post: 5633804, member: 23329"] How to start your day: Go out on the front porch around 6:30, make a strange loud noise and receive a gobble back. I knew there would be a gobble because there have been 3 turkeys here for the last week (one a definite Tom). This morning there were five, so I got the scope out and saw that they all have beards (I know, this doesn't mean they're Toms/Jakes, especially the ones drinking Bud Light). Beautiful day, so I went out and stalked them. We have been watching them from the living room and the front porch. We're up on a small knoll so we have a little shallow valley right in front/north of the house and another section of cleared land past the garden on the west side. The wind was coming from the north, north east. I mowed the valley one time this year, on April 13, and have let it grow since then and this last week of seeing turkey was a great reward for my experiment!!! Anyway, I'm sitting on the ground on the edge of the valley watching the turkey and waiting for them to come back across the clearing to the right/east to me and out popped 6 deer. At least one was a very young bambi. Another possible slightly older/larger bambi was there. (Let me know if you think there is a second bambi.) A week or so ago someone on here was talking about deer and turkey being together so this was some great video of that. I was quite happy after seeing all this and started to get up to leave and saw another turkey on the opposite side/east of the valley. My leg was asleep and my behind was muddy and wet so I took a few steps sideways to get out of site and walked up to the house. Sure enough, a few minutes later I'm out throwing the ball to the dog and those turkeys who disappeared into the woods on the west side of the valley with the deer were walking right back across the valley toward where I had been sitting. I'm pretty sure they were snickering at me! I took several short videos because I didn't know how long they can be without being too large to post. What an amazing experience! Enjoy!!! (Note: there are three turkey in the tall grass to the right of the closest tree.)
