Bob-O, the last thing I need is a bunch of blue hairs hanging around. I try to avoid them.

When I first bought my place, about 30+ years ago, we had turkeys everywhere. Then they left and have never really returned in numbers. I watched a fight between 2 gobblers in the front yard. My presence didn't bother them at all. The fight lasted about 20 minutes. They actually have a pushing contest using their necks a lot. One tried to raise a foot to spur the other one but that threw him off balance and put him at a disadvantage. Cool sight.

I think I'll put some corn in the feeder that's about 100 yards from the house to try to get them to hang around. At least that will make the coons and squirrels happy.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
