Where are you? We had two run across the yard last Saturday and fly over the road to the neighbors. Then we saw a flock of about 20 across the highway and another 4 a road over. Yes! Love is in the air, three have crashed into windshields in the last week...One a state trooper on the Indiana toll road. Love apparently make you blind, too.
Eastern Iowa - We live in a wooded area right in the center of Cedar Rapids. I have a picture taken a month ago...24 of them walking across our street! There are way more than ever the last couple years.
He's putting on quite a handsome display for her, but she seems to be playing hard to get. I live on eleven acres in a semi-rural area, but I've only seen turkeys on our property twice, and each time it was a big flock of a couple dozen or so. I did come home from a vacation one time to find a peacock inside my fenced yard. That was a mystery!
I used to live in Council Bluffs Iowa. I'd always see turkeys running a round in yards, and also big Canadian geese. Lots of wild life prancing through yards in Iowa.
