Nothing worse than a cocky turkey ..I just started working in the southern Ashland/Richland county area last summer I travel the countryside for my job. I have never seen more Turkeys anywhere I have lived in Ohio than I see here. I gotta start getting my slips signed for Turk season.We see 40-50 in the yard most days throughout the winter. By the time the season rolls around and the winter flocks have dispersed there will only be a handful if any hanging around. The most I have seen at one time in my yard was 77 and that was about 15 years ago. A friend of mine who owns property near Loudonville in Ashland Co has a flock of over 300 birds roosting on a hillside above his barn right now. Winter flocks of over 100 are not uncommon in SE Ohio.
