Default Easter Sunrise Service

Elaine and I "attended" our traditional Easter sunrise service -- scouting for gobblers on Easter Sunday. We've been doing this for 44 straight years now, and have been out in all weather and in multiple states.

The Toms were fairly tight-lipped, and we only heard one on our farm, with several seen and heard nearby and on our way to breakfast (who were kind enough to pose for photos).

Our season begins a week from Monday. I'm hoping that the bird we heard this morning will be ready to call then.

You are so right, Charlie. I hope those tracks you've been seeing turn into a gobbler for you and one of your big guns.
