Pics from a turkey hunt

[eyeguy 54]

Fun time today. First year trying for these buggers and 3rd trip to the field. The first pic the sreerning is up and it tunrned out not too bad. Zoom time First a hen came out and had herself a nice dustbath. The a jake and tom came out. Then back in, then back out, then back in, then back out. Sheesh! Get over here will ya!! The Tom got to 52 yards but I wasn't gonna fling my arrow unless he made it to 30. They went back in and I decided to wait till next time. Home at 6:30. Also took a deer tick off my hand and killed the little sucker!

When they take a dust bath, they take a dust bath! Fun series. Thanks for posting. I've worn enough ticks this spring to last a lifetime. Enough to warrant getting some permanone to treat one set of clothing for heading out in the wild. I suppose that doesn't mean the dog won't share hers. Since she gets treated, I think they abandon ship and come find me in the night. Maybe that's what that dustbath was all about!

Nice images. I just got back from turkey hunting in WI. Only seen one hen, no photo ops.

Saw a tom north of Deer River last weekend and a sandhill crane. First time I have seen them that far north. Well not true, I did see a turkey last year that way as well.
