Got one down
« on: April 18, 2021, 02:31:35 PM »
Setup on some birds that was roosted on private got to the far back corner of the public.

Well once the flew down. They went the other way farther onto the private. About an hour after flydown heard a bird gobble on the private cornfield to my northeast towards the river.

Called a couple times and he cut me off every time but was probably 300yrds away over the hill in the cornfield. So I just sat quiet and in about 10 minutes heard drumming. Then I saw his fan coming over the hill about 25yrds away. Once he saw the DSD's he came running to them. Shot him at 12yrds.

One of my personal current interests is nest predators and how a majority of hunters, where legal bait to the extent of chumming coons.  However once they get the predators concentrated they don't control them.

Congrats and a nice bird. But is it just me or what? When I have to incorporate a ton of horizontal and vertical scroll bars to see the pictures that's crap. Size your pictures and use the preview function.

Either that or I have to right click and select Open image in a new tab to see it.

Congratulations, the iridescence really shows up on that bird, very pretty.
