FINALLY had a morning that wasn't raining but the wind was still cold and clipping along at 20+ mph. The heavy rains of the last few days have left a flooded, swampy mess of most of the property and it's made access difficult. The flooded creek cuts me off from the roost which obviously hurts my bowhunting strategy. Either way, the birds just weren't talking much today. Had one Tom that shut up once he hit the ground and the other only gobbled a couple dozen times before moving away towards a large field that I don't have access to. I spent all day (5:30 to 1:00 PM) in the blind and only heard those 2 birds. I had a lone Hen walk past shortly after 7 o'clock but she never brought a boyfriend by. Still have 2 more days to hunt before its back to work.
