Thank you and congrats back at you on your first bird. Here in NY we can take two in the spring not sure if i'll have time to get out for another one

"Oh! He looks so peaceful, almost like he's sleeping!"

That's what they say about dead people, but it just doesn't sound the same when you say it about your next dinner. Good work!

A bird (eastern) over 20 lbs and with spurs exceeding an inch is a dandy.

congratulations
