Checking fences yesterday afternoon. Saw a Turkey Tom wings spread out and bouncing around. Got up to within 30 ft of him and saw that he had a hen under him. He could care less about me so I left him to what he was up to. And no I didm't get pictures.I was so surprised I didn't think about it.

Does that make you a "Peeping Tom" ?

there's also a little ritual that often happens immediately before the "act" ... the hen will circle the tom a few times, almost under his partially open wings, tail fanned. I've only seen it a few times on wild turkeys, pretty cool to watch. Guess it's a turkey's way of foreplay so to speak.
