Been hearing them off and on over the last couple weeks.
Was in a treestand this morning listening to several gobblers on both sides of tbe valley AND what sounded like a group of hen/poults straight up the hill behind me.
I never, EVER tire of that sound !!!!!
It's been very quiet in my neck of western PA haven't seen any poults. Did finally see a two gobblers along the river by my home. Hoping everything is ok with population. There was a lot of turkey activity in the spring, but nobody I know personally bagged a bird.
Yeah.... the crazy-wet June we had (also in PA) didn't bode well for the hatch. I'm not getting any trailcam pics of large fall flocks.
