What Have You Found Turkey Hunting

The thread on "what have lost while turkey hunting: got me thinking on what I  have found while turkey hunting. Things that I have found include gloves and a head lamp. On a few occasions I have even found turkeys. The most rewarding is I have found solitude. So what have you found?

Piles of morels. Most of my very best deer hunting spots. Lots of sheds. An old still or two. This year a giant graveyard, presumably graves of enslaved peoples running from about 1800-1840. At first I just saw some odd rocks. Went over and thought, that's a grave. Started looking around and they were everywhere. Anywhere from 75-100 graves. Out in the middle of nowhere.

I found this buckle at a camp I was in about 10 years ago, camp was close to the battle of Raymond.

I found this old medicine bottle this year at camp, it was in our driveway, the rain had made a rut and when i drove over it I thought it was just a broken piece of glass, started digging and it was in great shape, on the bottom it is stamped 1909.

I ran across an old Disc plow in the middle of the woods that was embedded in a tree.
I'll be hunting tomorrow so if i run across it again I'll take a photo and share.

cool stuff guys!!!

found a baseball glove (the single finger style/) before cell phone cameras(no picture)
i went to pick it up, and it just fell apart......how could that end up a mile from the nearest road, in the middle of a hardwood forest?
i guess some things we will never know the answer too?

Last season, I found a deer call I lost a few years ago but did not realize it since I rarely used it. It was in the high-water debris line and little worse for the wear.

abandoned marijuana grow on a Mississippi National Forest

It was about 0.75 miles from a 4-lane highway. They'd walked in ~0.5 mile on a logging trail and then bushwhacked 500-600 yards down to a creek bottom.

Found somebody's leg in Georgia one time.   Numerous marijuana plants in the 70's and 80's in central Florida.   It was so common back then it was like a native plant. 
If I'm not back in five minutes, wait longer!

Found a huge, overhung boulder on the side of a West Virginia ravine.  Built up on the ground directly below the edge of the boulder was a (VERY OLD) stone wall about 30 inches high.  You could easily have fit 10-15 men on the dirt floor under the overhang and behind the wall.

This was not very far at all from where the Civil War battle of Droop Mt. took place.................   Kinda makes the imagination run wild.

I hunt along a beachfront sometimes and once found a very nice looking pocket watch sticking out of the sand on the dunes. It was keeping perfect time and yes, of course, it was a Timex.
