First day of Turkey season here in upstate NY (Fly Creek) near Cooperstown, NY. Seen them way off but to windy and they spooked.
Went to work at 6:30 am and almost ran 5 turkeys ever crossing in front of me. Good luck to all the hunters out there. Get a big Turkey. Have a great day. Donna H.

Comment by Randy Macey on April 12, 2009 at 11:44am - Have had some turkeys in the back yard for the past little while. Was told that there was little ones already, thought it might be pretty early for them. But can only go by what I've been told. Have seen groups of 40 and 50 gathering in the back. But once the season opens, it's like anything else. Wont see one for miles! Know a couple of years ago, went out each day no luck. First day of the season closed, I was out planting new seedling trees and the damn turkeys where 20 feet from me most of the day watching me plant and walking around the seedlings... Kept talking to them, told them if they get any closer I was going to hit them with the shovel... No such luck!

This is kind a nice, a group with in the group... My family has trap for many years. In fact it has been given up about 4 or 5 years ago. But we still all get together for some hunting and fishing in the great white northern Ontario.
This year fishing was not the greatest, but the bugs where huge. Went back up for some birds and rabbits. This is more of a pre-season hunt for scouting out for moose.
Our moose hunting was great, at least for us. My family had been up about 4 days before me and my hunting partner arrived. First morning out, my hunting partner shot a nice cow in the first 15 minutes. My issue with my hunting partner is that he comes up so stressed. That when I drop him off some where. He walks for hours till the stress is gone, then I get the stress.
Trying to figure is he lost or is he hurt. So this year I drop him off to a small trail that where they finished logging. Told him to follow this trail and take the left skidder trail. This would take him out to where I would be set up.
Well just as I got to my location, and about to load my gun. I heard two shots!
It was not far, and figured it was my partner. We had already passed my family coming into the area. So we have completed the task, but it took us 6 hours to get the cow out.
So the rest of the time up there was just taking it easy and enjoying the company. We did some scouting and took lots of pictures. Went for some birds and rabbit. But all in all, just enjoy family and friends and have some fun.
