Heard a gobble from my deck tonight.

Gobble was fairly close.. probably 300 yards at the most. Gobbled probably 30 times.  I'm only 5 miles from the farm I hunt, and its overrun with birds. But rarely or never see or here a gobble at the house. Lots of birds around from July to November, but rarely see or hear a spring gobble.

Was on the deck the past 2 mornings at daylight listening, but didn't hear any gobbling. Had 2 nice toms ~40 yards from the house, cutting across the front yard today though.

Had the dog out this morning just as it was getting light. A close-by owl started hooting and a roosted gobbler lit up within 100 yards. Of course the dog barked at it and all quiet after that.

 My dogs seem to have a lack of understanding about where those tasty turkey cutlets and venison loins they love originate from

Funny thing. My hearing has diminished over the years, yet I can still hear a gobbler sounding off when others can't.
