Default Set-up problem: Can you help?

Okay, I went scouting this weekend and secured a property holding lots of birds.

I got up early and pinpointed the roost site. Heard a lot of gobbling from the roost in the early a.m hours.

Then, I took that information home and looked at aerial satellite photos to see the terrain and layout of the land.

My problem is this....The stand of trees which holds the roosting site lie right between two large open fields running north and south. One is east of the roosting site and one is west. Inside the stand of trees is a creek (obstacle).

When I observed the turkeys the previous day, they were on the field to the east.

I'm not sure which field to set-up on opening day. Obviously, my instinct says to set-up on the field to the east because that's where they were observed.

Could they change gears on me and go west?

Thanks in advance.
