My season runs threw the entire month of May... So hopefully I should be able to get a bird or 2 posted.. I have been pretty lucky the last 2 years by getting 2 birds each year.. Which was 2 Jakes, 3 toms, and 1 bearded hen.. The bearded hen was by accident as it was foggy and light drizzley rain.. I saw a beard coming threw the weeds so I left it have it.. When I went over to pick it up another bird flew. I saw what I shot was a hen and I thought I had messed up and somehow shot the wrong bird.. I then tossed her into some bushes making sure no one was around and decided not to waste her. I went over to her and rolled her over and there was a 7 inch beard looking at me.. You should of seen the look on my face so she was tagged locally as the first ever bearded hen.. They gave her a good looking over as well.
