Congratulations to a fellow southern gentleman! You better pace yourself or your season's gonna be cut short ....again! 'Course, you could always call one in for me. I ain't proud! We haven't done our annual yet, anyway.

You're right, though, they haven't turned on yet like they have in years past. I'm hoping that next week will be better, now that the dogwood is in full bloom. I did manage to connect on one last Thursday. He gobbled good on the limb, then went silent on the ground as he strutted and drummed his way in over the next hour from the back side of the hill. He timed it perfectly with the sun cresting over the hill as he slowly glided down in front of me.
