The Turkeys have made their annual voyage back to our country for the spring and summer months. They usually show up this time of year but leave in the fall. We never see them later in the year than about August or September. Why do they leave? The San Saba river is about 2 miles from our place as a crow flies and there are lots of big pecan trees and huge orchards along it and I wonder if they stay down on the river in the fall and winter (eating pecans?) and come up to our country in the spring and summer to breed and nest. We have plenty of water around ( Stock Tanks ) and tall live oak trees for them to roost in and in the fall and winter all of the deer feeders are going putting out corn so its not a food or water issue.
Im not really a turkey hunter, I have shot 1 turkey in my life when I was a kid. I do think that they are cool to have around though and my little boy might want to shoot one in a few years.
