My son and I are still after birds. I needed to take a week off, had a tendonitis flare up in my knee, couldn't walk last weekend (funny how those things ALWAYS happen on the weekend...ugh).

Birds are still talking on the roost, but man, those boys are henned up heavy right now. At least we're through the gobbling lull, so now it's just the 3P's (persistence, patience and perseverance). We went out this morning and counted more than 50 gobbles, but could not draw them out of the strut zone (a neighbor's yard that does not allow hunting). They're sticking tight to the hens, so we're going out tomorrow for a mid-morning hunt, hopefully can seal the deal on a lonesome bird.

We still have almost 2 full weeks, season ends 30min before sunset on May 31.
