Ok this mornning i scouted out an area i mentioned in a previous post. Man o man. i seen seven bird . within minutes of arriving. i sounded off a few strokes of the call and almost instantly i heard gobble gobble.. The birds have been holden the same pattern since last fall. Should be fun when the season opens.

yeah i went for a walk today and saw lots of sign, and ended up walking up on a hen on nest. i got 10 feet of her and she never moved.. i thought it was someones decoy, then she blinked. so i just started walking again she left me pass never moved.. thats a first for me, ive walked up on hens before but they took off.. never 10 feet.

The weather has taken a diffent change of direction. Therefoe the birds have calmed down. But today i did catch 7 in the power line. No matter what call i threw at em the did not respond well. Atleast i am seeing them i was worried . I didnt see any birds for 3 days. Has anyone else seen a change in turkey habits with the change in weather?

Just a word of advice, i wouldn't call to the birds as much as you are. You are educatiing them with every call, especially if they come in and don't find a hen and you get busted by them. But good luck saturday.
