Debbie, The stocking history for Wild Turkeys at Loch Raven is as follows: 1/29/97: 11F (6ad, 4 imm), from Warrior Mt. WMA, Allegany Co. 1/30/97: 4M (ad), 2F (ad), from Mt. Nebo WMA, Garrrett Co. All birds were wild when captured and released the next day at LochRaven. I would be interested in any sightings of Wild Turkeys at Loch Raven, Prettyboy, or Liberty Reservoirs. I receive frequent sightings of Prettyb= oy and Liberty birds. Their populations have been successfully reproducing f= or many years. I receive almost no reports of sightings from Loch Raven. Birders please look and listen for them in the vicinity of the North Central Railroad Trail between Ashland and Phoenix. Please note date, tim= e, location, how many birds, if they are bearded or unbearded, and if there are any young poults. Thanks to all for any assistance.
