well i went and set up on the edge of a big field this afternoon to do a little blind calling and i sat there for about 1 hour and 15mins. nothing. so i figured i would go to the other side of the property and try the gasline. well i walked to the edge of the field a looked around and didnt see anything so i take off down the edge of the field. about half way across a bird came out from under a cedar tree and takes off running. it was a longbeard! i made a huge loop to get on the other side of him and tried calling him up. well right before dark i watched him fly up to roost about 70yds away from me. i waited till pitch black dark to get my decoys and walk way around so he wouldnt see me. it was an exciting afternoon either way!!!!
