Looks like their breeding. Hard to tell if a hen is under some of them but in one of the pics I'd say there is.

We should have a rule that people can't post pictures of turkeys strutting during the month of March unless season is already in. Those pictures make me go crazy!

Thank God I'm going to Alabama for a week to kick off the season!

i think they are breeding a little bit, but with all the strutters togather i think they are showing off getting ready for the hens more then breeding. but just my opinion, ive always thought that the dominate bird will run all the others off once the hens are ready.

Here's a couple I got from last week of a gobbler breeding a hen. It's kind of a photo sequence of him strutting and the hen squatting in front of him in one frame, then he's on top of her, and then doing his thing.

However, this is in central FL so we're probably a little ahead of ya'll. But from the 4 cams I'm running on our place the gobblers really only started strutting recently (got my 1st pics of a strutter on the 23rd) and split up about 10 days ago. We had 5 or 6 longbeards running together all winter but now they've split up with 2 having their own little harem on different ends of the property and a group of 3 or 4 with another big flock of hens. It's definitely on here and probably slightly ahead of schedule.

yeah those pics are awesome. In two pics I can't tell if there is a hen under him or if he doing a dry run practicing the deed.
