Long beards gobbling yesterday and this morning

[bowbum]

I was painting the outside of one of our buildings yesterday and I thought I heard a gobbler sounding off. As the afternoon went on I heard several more gobbles.
Then this morning danged if we didn't get a wake up call from the gobblers.
Having coffee we saw 6 long beards in the yard. Spring time is here!

Last archery season I heard gobbling many times on my morning hunts. I've always heard a few but never as often as last season.
Tomorrow will be my first hunt of the year so I don't know if the local birds are sounding off this year or not.
