Well I am done, and no bird.

I have to work tomm morning and then that is it so sorry guys.

I walked in this morning and flushed my tom off the roost, wasnt able to roost um last night cause of work, and he flew down to the river bottom and about 10 min later i heard 2 shots.

Went back out tonight and the farmer was tillin up the fields and i asked him why today, "Cause i got my bird this morning!"

It flew in to him in the river bottom and he shot twice.

The specs on it---26 lbs, 11.5 in beard, 1.25 and 1 in spurs

Oh well there is always next year. I told him i had not shot the bird cause it was across his fense line and i did not want to disrepect him or his property and i could have had him over 5 times with the last couple days all except the fense and he told me to talk to him next year about that stupid fense. He told me that was really responsible and that i am a good judge of moral character, the kind of person he would want hunting his property!
Well heres to next year
