Very cool and thanks for sharing. We hunted them as a kid and now I may see 1 or 2 chickens per year. Unfortunately the last one I saw up close left a volleyball size crater in the hood of my work truck.

Great pics Bill. Do you have any pics of them wrapped in bacon or fried?

Thanks, Bobby. No, when I had them for dinner with the manager of the refuge, he said not to take any. Use to go by Limbwalker around here if you remember him.
