Glad to see you're still around, even if it's just bloopers

It's nice to be back.  Life is normalizing and I finally have some time to catch up on everyone's adventures.  I am trying to figure out how to edit the video clip and it will be up and running.  We watched the uncut version a few minutes ago and it was pretty funny.

Good Lord, You Tube says another 800 minutes for upload to be complete.  Here are a couple of screen shots.  We called in around 20 turkeys.  A group of 15 or so and another group of 5.  They converged on our spot around 4 pm.  It didn't end perfectly, but we really got to enjoy another great experience in the woods.  A hen fight, lots of vocals that included gobbles, cuts, yelps, purrs, putts, spitting and drumming, strutting toms, and a funny sequence with a pair of toms and the decoy.  I will give the full story with the video.  Anyway, can you guess the blooper from the screen captures?

Geez. 80 minutes left. No luck this morning over a set of dekes.  Called a small tom in running and gunning around 2 pm, but it pegged us before she could get on it.

How'd the final 80 go?

[tlbradford]

In case you want to watch quickly, here is a quick synopsis:
Minute 0-2 - Watch if you like listening to turkey vocals and me coaching my daughter.  I was facing the turkeys through the trees, and she was keeping focused on her shooting lane.  We were not in a blind, just a stand of jack pines and brush that I had cleared out.  This is also the reason I didn't move the camera.  I was worried the movement would get us busted before they came into her shooting window.
2-3:15 - pretty boring, just me letting her know they were on there way in and the toms would be the first things she would see.
3:30-5:30 - two toms strutting and rushing at the deke.  The deke unfortunately was behind brush.
5:30 - I set the camera down after the shot to reload.  I only give her one shell at a time and it was flopping around
5:40 - Shotgun gets set down when it quits flopping and lies still.
5:40 - 6:50 the blooper.  You can stop watching after that.  Nothing else happens.  For some reason I didn't cut the movie properly.
