Here’s an unusual animal story with some photos from Don and Joyce Hostetler of rural Bluffton. The Hostetlers are visited by wild turkeys each spring.

According to Joyce: The turkeys were back along the Riley near our house earlier this week. They only stayed two days this year, roosting in trees at night. Last year they visited us for several weeks.
There were nine turkeys this year. It was interesting to see young deer interact with them.
The deer were inquisitive and tried to walk along with the turkeys, but the birds were cautious and walked slowly away. It looked as if the deer were herding them.
