Ahh yes. Season gets closer every day!

I can’t wait. I’m going to try to get my wife and son on the local birds around our property and save my tags so I have something to keep things exciting on slow days looking for my spring bear.

Heard my First gobble this morning in Central Klickitat. Think there's lots of birds this year. Saw a flock of at least 80 late fall.

Ridgeratt · « **Reply #9 on:** March 16, 2021, 07:25:46 PM »

While I have 40+ birds in the pasture every day. I wasn't sure just exactly what KF was referring to. I was wondering if he had something that he wanted to share 🤔

Oops my bad.

brokentrail · « **Reply #10 on:** March 16, 2021, 07:40:45 PM »

@Ridgeratt I have 2 youth hunters that will help those pasture birds equal two less than 40

Ridgeratt · « **Reply #11 on:** March 17, 2021, 06:24:12 PM »

Dang Grass Clippers.
Looking like a herd of hens. But there has to be a Tom or two hanging out.

Had 4 yard goats herd these offenders down the driveway yesterday after the dawg saw the goats.

I must have weird turkeys around here. They Strut and Gobble year round here. I even have hens that fan out and do a sort of gobble. Must be in the feed.

. I was kinda thinking the same thing. Birds around me fan out and gobble pretty much all year also. I think it's on more when I start seeing the smaller flocks with just a tom or two and several hens. I'm mostly still seeing the bigger winter flocks in the usual wintering areas. Still seeing the Toms mostly running together away from the big hen flocks.

Yup

Still early and they're still flocked up in big hen groups, but the toms have moved in and I'm seeing strutting activity.

It's not "on like donkey kong", but its beginning!

I don't know? They all have hoof rot. Eight years ago, they didn't.

Turkeys are struting in my yard .
Started gobbles like a month ago.
So it's been going on for awhile.
I'd say every tom in the farmers fields in the valley are worked up now....

Jingles · « **Reply #20 on:** March 18, 2021, 07:35:08 AM »

No one in the neighborhood sleeps past the sky in the east starting to lighten due to gobbling on roost and been that way for almost a month

If it stays next to the road. Someone will Wells Fargo him.
Bang out the window and then the "scramble" to retrieve it and get back into the rig before Someone sees them.

Me and my daughter are heading to the Colville area for the youth hunt. We are trying to get her first turkey this year. She is pretty excited to get out there, I also drew a spring bear tag in 117 so we are going to try and do a little scouting while we are over there. Anyone with a turkey problem let me know.

Ridgeratt · « **Reply #29 on:** March 26, 2021, 11:43:24 AM »

KF went to the post office about 5 minutes ago. Your pet was going rogue and was standing in the road.

Ghost Hunter · « **Reply #30 on:** March 26, 2021, 12:14:37 PM »

I need to get over there and get some target time on the broadheads. Wrong target Wrong place
