They are clumsy taking off and landing they come around my house and will roost in the trees sometimes, quite the commotion when they do. We have a lot of autumn olive, it is an invasive species the turkeys love the berries in the fall, fun watching them flop around in the bushes trying to stay on branches that do not hold them up.
