You hunt turkeys in fields you'll often see a Crow pecking around the field watching the hen hoping she'll give up her nesting location.

I hadn't heard that about crows and retrievers, but don't doubt it. I understand Black Vultures, which are more aggressive that larger Turkey Vultures, are known to pluck the eyes out of newborn livestock and fawns and then either kill them, or start trying to eat them alive. I see a lot of Black Vultures. No doubt they're another part of the gauntlet turkeys have to run.
