Meet the Turkeys<\/h2>\n
\n

One bird\u2019s mess is another bird’s meal! Wehr\u2019s Wild Turkeys will gladly clean up the stray seed thrown to the ground by busy birds at the feeders. It’s quite a sight to find cardinals, doves, and sparrows eating right alongside these giant turkeys.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
