western NY bowhunter Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Checked my trailcam again yesterday morning. Not a whole lot going on. Had a bunch of hen/jake pics. but nothing too overly special except for this old girl that passed by about an hour before I showed up. I've been watching one on the farm here for the past several years...don't know if this is the same one or not. Bearded hens are pretty common around here. I typically see 3-4 every spring. Still cool to get a photo of one though. Got a kick outta this pic too. The one hen appears to prefer to dine while laying down. That's my boy "Mr. Hooks" in the middle. He's got lots of lady friends already... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

western NY bowhunter Posted March 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Sweet you going to try to shoot her and get her mounted? Nope. She's legal to take...but, they're pretty common around here. My spring tags are for longbeards only...lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fly Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Some great shots there. I saw a flock of about a dozen hens during the deer bow season here in Il. Every one had a beard dragging the ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jesse8953 Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 I hope that trend does not cross over to the women in IL. lol:eek: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
