Title: Iowa Birds
Post by: The Deacon on May 07, 2010, 07:24:06 AM: Thanks, WACenturian, for the digital help - and a long overdue hello to you and your boy!

Meats - I'm giving this posting photos a try. We'll see how it goes -

Julia Carol with her bird from 12 April -

My bird from 13 April. Twenty-gauge turkey guns rock! -

Buddy and I tag-teamed this one on 14 April -

Retired Air Force colonel and former WA resident, Andy Davis, and his boy, Matt, with their Iowa birds (23 and 25 April) -

The spurs on Andy's bird -

Buddy, Nathan, and his two-hour bird we killed on 2 May -

My Pop and his bird - 7 longbeards in 7 consecutive years with 7 (muzzleloader) shots just after turning 70 in March -

Keep those razor clams fresh, Brad! We'll be there soon enough, and I'll be standing on your doorstep asking - "Hey, can we go duck hunting today?"

Truthfully, when I trim my face, it looks like an old grey opossum blew up in the sink. Yes, it's that bad -
