Phil from Maine

Our season may have ended but a new one has begun.. Now is the time for the turkeys to renew for future years to come. I took a ride and saw a hen with some young poults this morning. I tried to get a pic of them but without much luck. I did manage to get a pic of a young poult in flight. I just hope they can make it until they are all grown up so that I can enjoy a future season of hunting them once again..

Saw some last weekend Phil,looked like she had 5 with her.I'm sure the preditors are taking their usual toll on the young ones,but our population is doing well.Saw 2 nice strutters a Jake and a hen last night in one of my hunting spots,one made my mouth water.

Was working at a NAVHDA test yesterday. I was gunning for a Utility dog. First point this dog goes on the handler flushes a big ole turkey and I see what I thought was a covey of quail! Quail? Nope was her poults - 12 to 14 of them. Didn't fly real well and Can't shoot those......
What really surprised me was how well hid that hen was in the grass we walked up to. We had no idea. but the dog knew.
