Prime Habitat: Hemlock, Spruce, Pine, and tons of standing Corn.

Winter Turkey Banquet! This is what brings them in and keeps them here.

 Wild turkeys have established themselves well in the area and it's common to see flocks of up to twenty to thirty birds at a time. Mild winters, heavy mast crops of oak and beech and light hunting pressure have all contributed to population increases. Birds congregate in our area feeding on planted food plots of corn, sorghum, buckwheat and millet. Adjoining state hardwood forests also provide both food and cover. We have the birds if you have the patience and skills to hunt this elusive bird.

New York State Turkey License Required!
