California turkey down w/ Micro
Got to sit in the blind this morning but was not expecting much after a very disappointing opening weekend.
Lots of calls at first light then they all ran off to water and not in front of me.
Was the first time hunting with a few new buddies and appreciated them letting me take the first shot
Started hearing faint gobbles in the distance and gave my new slate call a few clucks.
Heard two birds come closer and then get farther away...
Gave another cluck or two with a purr, only to hear a loud gobble right behind my blind, darn ninja...
The solo tom came in hot an bothered to my decoy and was practicing the strut & spin.
Waited for him to flash his rear to me so I could get into position.
One and done., home by 9am...
Not the biggest beard (~5") but nice spurs and weighed in at 21lbs (pre-dress).
Will be eating delicious turkey cutlets tomorrow night along with smoking a leg or two.

Congrats on a fine turkey. What kinda lizard is that? Looks like a small confused gator.

Funny you should say that... They are alligator lizards. Super cool little bug eaters that move through the grass like an alligator swimming in water.hankenhunter wrote:....What kinda lizard is that? Looks like a small confused gator.

The long tails mean these guys have had few encounters with the local bird population.
They are not the friendliest lizard and tend to bite a lot ha ha.
I used to keep them as pets when I was a kid.

Sadly my old smoker is headed to the recycler as the rusty pin holes have gotten too bad.mreyner wrote:Nice smoker behind you Bird nice to.
On a happier note, my new Green Mountain Grill DB shows up tomorrow
