Turkeys are even worse. Pulled up t one of my plots a few years back, big gobbler pecking around the feeder.

I start mowing. As I get close to him, he moves back into the woods. I figure he's gone.

Nope.

I mow past the feeder, turn around, and go to the other end of the field, turn and start back down. Same gobbler at the feeder.

I actually got within 20 yards of him at one point. Close enough to see his spurs, mowing on a tractor.
