So up at 4:15, and after being in place a couple hours, I had a good sandwich, a big cup of hot soup, and like a hammer the fatigue hits me”¦can’t hold my eyes open”¦decided I’d just “rest them” for 30 seconds. When I opened them 10 minutes later, this is what was staring at me.
My heart rate went into high gear when I saw this in the decoys, then when I clicked the remote to start the video my heart rate doubled again when I realized I’d left the camera in normal single shot mode instead of remote control video. In the quiet, still woods the shutter going off seemed very loud, the head snapped around to see what the noise was, got nervous, exited stage left...no beard, no shoot...but it made the day.
Never heard a gobble from first light until 1:00pm”¦will try again Monday.
