Had a great morning turkey hunting today with my son Joey. We set up early this morning and because of the weather the turkeys waited a long time to gobble. Once they did we realized we were in the wrong spot. So we headed to where we needed to be and in a hurry because light was coming fast. We got as close as we could and sat down. What we didn't know was that we sat 10 yards from a tree that had a Jake roosted in it. Here is the audio/visual version.

Those crazy Merriams fly down ridiculously early sometimes... truth 25 this year had some that pitched down in almost pitch dark.
