The gobblers are really getting comfortable with the feeder close to the house now. There is usuallay a flock of 8 longbeards, today there were 12 longbeards. The big guy under the feeder in the first pic is sporting a big paintbrush about 10" or 11", and has a small pencil thin 3" beard on top of it
we named him puff daddy double stuff, because he would puff up and run the new four intruders off when they would get to close (dominant bird ) Not a jake in the bunch, these were ALL long beards.a couple ventured 20 yards from the house and milled around the pool for awhile. the feeder is 40 yards from the house. thought you would enjoy some pics to get pumped for the upcomming spring hunts.
