A Beautiful Morning
I've been hunting this bird off and on since turkey season opened last Saturday. He gobbles pretty good some mornings on the roost, but once he flies down and gets with hens, he goes silent for the most part only rarely answering a crow or owl. I noticed that he will not answer a long owl call ("who cooks for you, who cooks for you all"), but he will answer a single owl ("whhooooaahhhh" as in the video). I have heard six gobblers at this spot on Easter morning and have had some great hunts. Today a front was moving through and I heard zero gobbles at daylight. About 6:45 this morning there was some distant lightning and a big boom of thunder. This old bird gobbled at the thunder as many will. I "got on him" a little after seven and stayed close until about ten. He had two or three lady friends with him and my options were limited. I did manage to get pretty close and a time or two thought I was going to call his hens my way hoping he would follow. The hens around here are as vocal as I have heard them in my life this season. Anyhow here is a snipit of how I have spent nearly every April morning for the last twenty-five years. Turn your volume up as he is a long way from me at the time I filmed this.

Was it plain stupidity or murder?
This link is to a very graphic video that shows woman rack the slide on an automatic pistol, put the gun to the head of the man riding in the passenger seat, and pull the trigger. It is a classic example of "play stupid games and win stupid prizes". The moral of the story is never, ever, ever, get in a vehicle with an armed "crazy bitch". The cops are calling it "an accident" with "kids playing with a gun" (25-30 year olds looks like to me). If I were on a jury, it would be murder with the recommendation of the death penalty.
HOUSTON - A video that surfaced on social media during the weekend showed what led up to when police say a gun went off in a car, shooting a man in the head.
The shooting was reported about 2:30 a.m. Sunday in the parking lot of a Valero gas station at Almeda Road and Southmore Boulevard.Houston police said that three people were inside the car while the man, identified by friends as Devyn Holmes, 26, and a woman were playing with two handguns. The gun fired, hitting Holmes in the head, police said.More HERE.
