I knew it was probably a little too early to find the turks in the places I hunt. They usually don't move in till about the beginning of April. But with the weather so nice I couldn't help but get up at daybreak and take a walk hoping to see/hear some gobbles.
Yesterday's sunrise...

Some kind of bird kill, and from the scat, whatever killed it came back a couple days in a row to finish it off...

Again, no turkeys,but it's only a matter of time...stay tuned!
Thanks for sharing Curt
Had a similar hike here today.
Sorry didn't take the camera, or the bow, but did find an "Old" shed, all weathered and cracked, and two really nice big toms..
Just needed a "Woods Fix" after being cooped up for three months with snow and ice.
Looks like an awesome day and some good scouting for deer hunting next year.
Looks like a great day Guru.
Somewhere, not far from you, there is a turkey...with a baaaaaaad feeling. Something just ain`t right...like someone...something, is watching him.
Great pics!!!
:thumbsup:
Dang I'm jelous Curt, We had a few warm days but now we have 8 inches of snow and 3 foot drifts back on the ground again. :banghead:
Great picks as always my friend looks like a good place to put up a trail cam this fall ;)
Tracy
Cool brother... wish I was there.
ak.
Al, I wish you were here as well bud...jump on a plane!
I got in my first woods walk since the big melt and found one nice shed. Saw one tom on my place as I drove around to the back side, he was locked up strutting. It won't be long.
I'm with Tracy. Got My neck sunburned on Thursday when it was 65 degrees out. And now I've got 9-10 inches of fresh snow.
Bow season opens for Turkeys on April 1st I hope the weather straightens out by then.
Great pics. Curt, Thanks!
No Turks and looks like no deer either :thumbsup:
Snow everywhere - and turkeys April 1st? We have about 10" of new snow here, does not seem like turkey season is close.
:campfire: :coffee:
Great pics!
Nice Curt. I have the itch to get out for some scouting myself.
I know it finally warmed up here and I'm getting ansi. I Can't wait until may! :coffee:
Don't kill too many birds and make the rest of us look bad.
