Brass on plastic;

This morning's bird;

Surprised when I walked up on him, double beard;

I shot one a few years ago that had 4 beards.. It is a genetic thing.. Some of our hens have beards as well..
Mid-day was tough calling.. Strong winds.. Kept our hearing, as not what it must.. The Toms seemed to already be committed with hens.. Other than a couple jakes, those young punks are not ready to settle down with a nice girl..
Finally found another single, love sick Tom;

Always thought it was neat how the head off a turkey can change colors.. When a male wants to attract a female, his waddles fill with blood and turn red.. Thinking with the wrong head has lead to the demise of many of these odd birds;

No artificial flavors nor preservative;

So I sat out on the deck of our hunting camp.. Listened to the coyotes as the night set in.. Replayed the deeds of the day;

The day's light fell away..
