You should count them at night.  Their easier to count on the limb, just like.........well you know.

Indeed...but all of his can signal the international space station using just a watch battery.  That seems like a little overkill for my census.

Gueswho,

I think you messed up on Geargia's count. How many barnyard birds did you kill in Georgia ?  :TooFunny:  :toothy12:  :bike2:  :OGani:

A man fires a rifle for many years, and he goes to war. And afterward he turns the rifle in at the armory, and he believes he's finished with the rifle. But no matter what else he might do with his hands, love a woman, build a house, change his son's diaper; his hands remember the rifle.

I ain't even seen a turkey in several years.  I think someone shot all the hens and stomped on their eggs where I hunt.
