Re: Another Fly In at the Flying X April 5/6
Big thanks to Jamie and George Horn for being such generous hosts for this event! The GUMBOS were superb and the scenery was an added WOW! ! The local wild turkey flock made awesome appearances with the 10 or so adult GOBBLERS and more than a dozen jakes/hens joining in the scene. The adult males were showing off their beautiful plumage and gave us outstanding photo opportunities! And also the local 'pet deer' were in attendance. Thanks again to the Horns!
