Default Late nest

Hey guys, ment to show this earlier. Was getting ready to clear are greenfields this past Sept. and came across this turkey nest (hen still around). I've been in the woods all my life and haven't seen one this late. Do they nest again like smaller birds if its a good year or something happens to the little ones, or was this just a fluke?

Maybe she died and the eggs just lasted that long...

No, she flew off the nest when I went by on the tractor. That's how I found it.
