Turkey Winterkill
Hello AOF Members,
Does anyone have any information on potential/actual winterkill of turkeys in Alberta this winter? Last year was tough on the birds and I suspect this year is possibly even worse given the many heavy dumps of snow and extended cold temperatures we have experienced this winter and delayed spring and snowmelt.
I have heard of 2 sightings of flocks of around a dozen birds or so but they were near farms/ranches that are known to feed the birds through the winter.
Any information would be sincerely appreciated!
Thank you - GOBBLER FANATIC
