They can definitely be found on Rattlesnake Island!

You should have seen this fella in full strut! Wish I grabbed my camera faster!

These photos were taken by
DBA, who is also a fellow islander.

This shot taken by
DRH shows how they might get to an island.

We had startled the turkey that was nesting and she took off for a bit. She did make her way back to the nest.

It was pretty neat finding this turkey nesting up behind our camp. It is my understanding that finding a nest like this is unusual.

I was so excited at the prospect of seeing little turkey babies running around, but we took an overnight trip home and missed the whole thing.
