So you think that turkeys (young or old) out in an open field are safer from attack from a big Hawk or Eagle ?
And that by mowing you are creating grasshopper hAbitat ?
Yes. And yes.
Ever noticed that turkeys and geese prefer to feed in big, wide open fields ?? THEY figured it out. Much easier for predators of all types to close the distance on them undetected the closer to the wood line they get.

That's a VERY good thing.
Like I said above.............and what's puzzling.......is that a lot of local farmers are remarking about how many little turkeys they're seeing. But we aren't. Time will tell, I suppose.
