You could always read The Stand by S. King, definitely the worst case scenario.

Take wildlife photos out the bedroom window. I have had as many as 9 on the north side of the house when I come home from the shop. This one and a larger one did not leave when I drove in, borrowed my wife's tablet and managed to take a couple of photos after struggling with the tablet for a while. The close one was about 10 feet from the window. The other one left while I was fooling with the tablet.
Had deer out there also, but never tried to get a photo.

We have an outside cat, but as far as I know he has not met the turkeys yet.

I have a hankerin' for cranberries and sweet potatoes all of a sudden.  It's not even Thankgiving.   How odd.

Been almost 40 years since I killed a wild turkey. Kind of handy since you process yourself and can quarter it or freeze in convenient serving sizes.
Around here it happens fairly often a turkey will develop a taste for the native chili pequins. The bird will be so hot when cooked that most could not eat it and few would enjoy it even if there was nothing else to eat. Think so hot that your fork melts.
This time of year that should not be a problem. This is the first year they have actually been staying on the place, so I am not going to bother them. They have always been heard gobbling on the neighbors places and seen once in a while crossing here. So far they make good neighbors unlike coons, possums, rattlesnakes or coyotes.

We have had critters on our property off and on. Turkey, deer, coons (not for long), 'possum, squirrel, rabbit, pheasant. Even a pine martin (I swear, which is unusual for northern Illinois). Eagles are coming back (not far from the Pecatonica River), hawks, fox, coyote, etc. Been trying, but haven't gotten a song dog yet. Called them in a few times and seen them a few times at night. Have a little gun range out back and will be shooting some muzzleloaders this weekend. Plenty to do; cut trees down, clean up yard, rake gravel back on the drive. I'm wore out thinking about it. Tongue Need to get a tractor, mowers, chainsaw and motorcycle in shape for the season. Never mind what I just said above. I forgot that "my old lady" has a list. Cry

Knute,
You have the c-19 blas licked, 2 lists of things to do and when you need a break point the camera out the window and take a picture of the wildlife.

Got it. I'm heading out the door to my Mother-In-Law's 27 acre spread to kill me some early weeds and trim a tree. Getting a late start.

Midday break. My Norwegian Elkhound and German Shepard are out in this nice weather, so there aren't much critters around. But here are some antlers found on my neighbors property near my house this week. My German Shepard "stole" one half of it off my neighbor's wagon. When my neighbor found out where it went he gave us the other half. So this deer should be lurking around here some where and probably is one of the reasons my dogs are barking at night. My fat head probably exaggerates the true spread.
