Stray Shots
Posted by TTH Staff

Posted by Jim Schlender, Editor

This blog entry marks the first of what I hope will be many more dedicated to sharing the countless pictures that I don't know what else to do with. Here are two to kick off a collection of "stray shots."

military camo.jpgThis one was making the e-mail rounds this morning. Ironically, I was just looking for photos to go with Jim Spencer's article in the Fall 2008 issue (due out mid-August), "The Principles of Camouflage." No, this one won't be in the article, but it would certainly fit. If you don't get it, you're not looking closely enough. Thanks to Rick White from Hunter's Specialties for forwarding.



gobbler dropping.JPGSpeaking of Rick White, a couple Aprils ago we were walking along the edge of a plowed field in Kentucky when I happened upon this um, impressive, sign. It's a gobbler dropping, I know, but how big did this bird have to be? As I pulled out my Olympus point-and-shoot to snap this picture, it occurred to me that sometimes this job gets a little weird.

Our son who is a furniture company representative, called us a few days ago to ask if we'd like a camo sofa. My initial response was, "That's a nice thought but no." After looking at that picture, I may have changed my mind. I could dress in camo, lie on the couch and Doris could not find me to go pick blueberries, weed the garden, etc. What a great idea!

Now, about that other picture...

Thanks,
Clark

The gobbler that left that did not have to be big at all, but he had to have a pretty big anus.

Unless you actually saw the turkey that dropped the huge load, you can't assume that it was a gobbler. The shape of turkey droppings is just a guideline, not a guarantee. Hooked shaped droppings are usually from a male but hens also produce this shape as well, although less often. Hen turkeys that are nesting are on the nest for hours at a time and usually make droppings that size or bigger. I've seen some as big as a turkey egg. I've seen this from turkeys that I've raised and I have also observed it in the wild.
