My Turkey Season got disrupted . I had planned on going out Tuesday am but had to cancel . Monday evening ,just before dinner , my wife tripped coming up from the basement . She fell at the top , fell into the kitchen , hit her head and landed on her left hip . Took her to Urgent care for x-ray . Possible fracture . Drove wife to Highland Hospital . They did some further checks and yesterday am , she had the left hip ball and socket done . Brought her home this evening . So much for Turkey Hunting . Get one for me !

People put up these petitions and they go absolutely No Where . It just gives someone who signs them a Feel Good Feeling .

Happy Birthday . Have a great day !

Are Gobblers more inclined to move in cooler weather ? there are going to be some cold mornings this week . I have never really gotten into turkey hunting and trying to get one before I am too old and decrepit to shoot one .

A friend of mine that lives in Walworth got a nice bird this am . He said that after dinner last night his 7 year old son was playing with his box call . He said his son came in the house and told him a turkey was answering him . His dad checked it out and set up in that area this am . Got his bird . I asked if I could rent his son to help me out .

Woke up 40 minutes before the alarm went off . Had coffee & sandwich and shoved off . I was set up in Walworth by 5 am . Half hour before time to shoot . Heard a scream at 5:15 that startled me . Sounded like a distressed rabbit . At 5:20 , I heard the 1st Gobble , then quiet . A little later I caught a glimpse of 3 birds flying down from roosting . Heard two birds gobble for a few minutes . They were all across the ditch and north of me . At 6 am 4 birds flew down from roosting and probably went to the field the other side of the woods . I heard one shot at 7:15 that was south west of my location .He might have gotten one of the birds that I saw fly down in that direction . Couldn't call anything in but had one gobbler respond to my calls for about a half hour . My back and but were killing me so I gave up at 10 am . Soooo , I got it out of my system !

Accu Weather show rain from 5 am thru 8 am . Weather Bug shows cloudy but no rain . Will give it a try ......... Good Luck everyone !

The red squirrel passed away this morning due to Covid-19 and complications caused by Lead Poisoning .from a Crossman G1 Extreme . RIP Red ............

I have several bird feeders in the back yard and get quite a variety of birds coming to them . Anyway , it has also attracted some gray squirrels that often mysteriously disappear . My wife called me out to watch a red squirrel chasing the much larger gray squirrels away . It was funny to see that little red guy chasing them all over the back yard . Wish I had it on video !

Some NEWS reports that after his surgery Kim Jong Un has become brain dead . Now he should be able to write speeches for Joe Biden !

Great Pictures . Thanks for sharing .

Happy Birthday Bionic . Have a great day !

I thought they were just clearing shooting lanes ...........

I could tell Turkey season is close . The Black Flies are out . I went on my 1 1/2 mile walk and was attacked by those darned things on the way home . Black Flies are the main reason that I stopped hunting Turkeys . I might give it a try this spring though .

I have never liked Prince Andy but he said something that I agree with . NYS gets less back from the Government than it pays out . Mitch McConnell's state of Kentucky gets more Federal money back than it pays out . Something stinks !

One of the few times I have agreed with Bill Maher

WOMAN SHOT IN THE HEAD Linda Burnett, 23, a resident of Arkansas, was visiting her in-laws and while there went to a nearby super-market to pick up some groceries. Later, her husband noticed her sitting in her car in the driveway with the car running and the windows rolled up. Her eyes closed with both hands behind the back of her head. He became concerned and walked over to the car. He noticed that Linda's eyes were now open and she looked very strange. He asked her if she was okay; Linda replied that she had been shot in the back of the head and had been holding her brains in for over an hour (at least it seemed that way to her, it actually had been 15 minutes, she blamed the inability to tell time on her head injury). The husband called the paramedics, who broke into the car because the doors were locked and Linda refused to move her hands. When they finally got in, they found that Linda had a wad of bread dough on the back of her head. From the back seat a biscuit canister had exploded from the heat, making a loud noise that sounded like a gunshot, and the wad of dough hit her in the back of her head. When she reached back to find out what it was, she felt the dough and thought it was her brains. She initially passed out, but quickly recovered. Linda is blonde, a Democrat, and a Biden supporter; but that could all be a coincidence. The defective biscuit canister was analyzed and it was determined to be Trump's fault.
