Owls are the natural enemy of the turkey, set up a decoy in the yard and get a call that sounds like an owl and you can at least locate them, then flush them out of the trees. Do this early in the evening, turkeys are not very smart so you may have to do this a few nights in a row, their eyesight is fantastic and they will not like you getting close to them, but they will not move in the roost so you will have to get creative. We hoot like an owl when scouting for turkeys before the season starts and they respond every time.
