Turkey Infestation... and new grass???

[RadarTech]

:confused2:
Well, My back yard has suffered from the heat and other issues and I decided to just replant it all...

so I bought (2) 40 lb bags of grass seed, hay bales and went to town..
Spread a few areas on the drive and then the back yard..

Well 3 days later I got home from work and I see 4 turkeys out there eating the seed!

So my quandry-- I really don't want to kill them.. but what can I do to keep them off the grass???

my thoughts were a motion detector enabled sprinkler....
or maybe pie tins on sticks with strings..

but what else do yall think???

Just curious. What type of grass seed are you planting in August?

whatever the folks are the seed store reccomended...
I got a small bag there and then went to Home Depot and got more cheaper...
It was a shade and sun combo seed from Scotts... But I planted it 2 weeks ago--- been working alot and not enough time to post!



It came up REAL good where they left it alone..

I'll post those pics after while...
