All four times I passed through there last year I saw a minimum of a dozen birds, one trip I lost count at 27 and there were more than that.  Also two really nice mulie bucks lying right against the steps of one home.

Yeah, they should be.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

See turkey in there every hunting season.. cool you got pics.. i usually only catch a glimpse of them.. i think someone raised them then just let them run wild.. dont quote me on that though.. just what i heard.

Those are birds that the state brought in back in tbe early 80's in SE Washington. Their population exploded and they have spread far beyond the release areas. A major success story for WDFW.
