Title: Hammer time.
Post by: West Augusta on April 21, 2021, 05:51:00 PM
Since I didn't make it in time to be on a team this year, I'll post my pix here.
Florida wasn't kind to me at all.   :TooFunny:  In fact the swamp was down right rude to me but I had a blast and finally found some birds but too late.

Day two of my West Virginia season was much more kind to me.
Maybe my heaviest bird to date.  22 pounds 3 ounces with an 11" beard and one spur 1 1/4 and the other 1 1/8".  T'was  a blast.

Yes I did.  :TooFunny:
Dad was in the hospital for a few days and I came home.  When he went home, I went back to the swamp.  Came close the second time.

From the kids game A Barrel of Monkeys. 
It's a joke from the swamp of Florida.  Since I didn't kill an Osceola, I now have a "Monkey" on my back.
