State Chapter Newsletter – March 2019

Once again, Hello! Hope all are surviving the cold and ice; it’s been brutal, hasn’t it? At night I can see a flock of turkeys roosting in the trees behind the house and I can only wonder how in the heck they don’t freeze up and fall off their limb. Anyway, this...

One of the best things in the fall is an early morning walk in the cool brisk air (now that it’s here). Saw three smaller bucks (bachelor group) along a corn field, then a flock of turkeys (two hens and about twelve poults) along the side of the road.

My grandsons, Hudson and Brody, doubled yesterday in Clare Co. with two great Toms. Hudson’s bird (first picture), was his first ever (check out that ear-to-ear grin) and had an 8” beard with 3/4” spurs. Brody’s bird had a double beard, 6” and 4”, with 1” spurs. Of course I’m really proud of these two great kids. ... See MoreSee Less
