2020 Ohio Turkeys

[BuckeyeBucks]

Hey everyone, I’m fairly new to turkey hunting. I’ve been seeing a lot of birds already strutting out in fields this year. We’ve had a really warm early spring. Is this normal for them to be strutting this early before the season starts. Thanks for any replies.

Yes, very normal. They are establishing a hierarchy for breeding rights when the hens are ready.
