Thaw!
« on: Jan 18, 2010, 06:59:42 AM »
This thaw is really going to help the local herd, deer are out of their torpor and out on the feed. Had 19 turkeys in the backyard yesterday with 5 big toms strutting like it was april- pretty cool, wife had camera in her car, I'll try to get some pics if they come again, 3 of the toms are HUGE!  ;D

They're on the move around here, too. Tracks all over along the road in what little snow we have left. The deer and turkeys are happy for sure.
Its always archery season. >>>---------->
