Steve, put this Tom to bed............

last night and again tonight. Each evening just before dark he and his flock has come down the mountain behind the house and they stop by the pond, get a drink and then fly up to roost in the tall pines just below the house. This evening I had the camera handy when he came by.

Argghh... You're killin' me, Dave. Our season opens Saturday but I'm going to wait it out until some of this last snow dump disappears.

You're not actually gonna let Sutton use a scattergun on those petting zoo toms, are ya? I expect to see a tailgate shot of him holding a gobbler in his spur-scratched arms and a bloody Rambo-esque knife between his teeth.
 
Probably wise to wait a few days until the snow is gone and the temps warm up. M.C. was 22 & 37 yesterday and here's a pic taken this morning at Arrow Creek (the closest road cam to where you hunt on the Tongue.)

Don't worry about Steve, we will hunt some spots that I know of where the birds are harder to come by. I imagine he'll want to hunt them this year with one of the spears he hunts wild boar with, he's just that kind of guy. Have fun on your turkey hunt and get a big'un.

I gotta go, Judy says the biscuits and sausage gravy is ready!

I understand they got two feet of snow up in the hills on the National Forest south of MC and the roads remain closed. It never fails during turkey time. We'll probably get one more good blast before calling it a winter.

Mmmmm...biscuits and gravy.
 
You mean to tell me that Steve needs a spear for wild boar,
The good ol'e Boys down here jump on 'em and hog tie 'em ,so they can release them
on property with domestic sows.
