Take Aways
- In the winter turkeys seek out habitat that helps them survive the winter, by spring they move into other areas.
- As the breeding season approaches, turkey flocks break up and movement patterns shift.
- Scouting in the winter can afford some value but because so much changes, the learnings can only provide general help.
- After the breeding season, turkey habits and movements change again as poults are born and raised.
- Then turkeys begin to flock up again and their habitat shifts.
- So there are specific times that have high value for scouting.
