Click on the pic for the video...
A couple of the jakes were struttin before they left the hens, but tall grass hid most of it from the video.
It started out as a shed hunt behind a neighborhood. After no luck finding antlers, I ran into a small group of jakes and at least one good longbeard (you can see him for a split second at the beginning of the video). A little while further I saw a flock of about 30 hens in a field. On the way back, the hens and gobblers came together for a bit and I got some good video. Then the jakes & longbeard flew up to roost. Not long after, I watched all the hens walking along a tree line before flying up to roost next to the rest of the birds. Got some of the hens flying up at the end of the video.
All this was within city limits, around a couple of neighborhoods. Makes up for an antlerless shed hunt!
A couple more pics...
I'd say it was good practice for self filming my turkey hunts this spring.
Hope I find some good birds to hunt when I start scouting in a couple weeks...
