No. Is that possible without at least some rain?

yes, morning dew can wet the seed....but not all of it. You should be fine, but the yield will be reduced.

It is worse if your get a good rain right after the planting, then it goes full drought for weeks....then you have a chance of a worse loss.

Not much you can do, maybe a rain dance!

They will be fine, as soon as you get some rain it will germinate. Most of us seed too heavy anyway and a little bird loss is fine. Only real risk of needing to reseed is if you are absolutely covered with turkeys, but if so who cares about feeding some deer.
