I Headed east last thursday for 4 days of trout fishing and some turkey hunting. The weekend started out great when we saw a couple Hens pecking around the cabin I was staying at all thru the day on Friday. Saturday came and we had more birds show up. I got this picture on Saturday night when we had two toms, a Jake and about 10 hens out Saturday just before dusk.
As you can guess due to the fact that the birds were around that this is the result of a Sunday morning hunt.
Out of three guys this is the take for the weekend. I got the one on the bottom. Nice long beard.
It was kind of a lazy hunt since the birds were roaming around the cabin everyday. They really like the area since there is a river and spring that produces lots of bugs to eat. There is a lot of open space for them to strut their stuff. We even caught the birds scratching in the fire pit.
Bonus pic I took while sitting at the table in the cabin.
Even after we shot the two birds we would see more birds roaming around and hour or two later.
