May 10:  The wind was howling for the first hour of daylight. I hunted the dam and didn't hear a gobble. Just before 8:00 a gobbler sounded off a couple hundred yards away. I cut and yelped. No response. But in 15 minutes I saw a longbeard looking at my decoys from across the stock pond. At the same time a hen came around the west end of the dam. The longbeard, of course, saw it too and went after the real hen. Here are the thumbnailed pictures.

The hen.

At this point the longbeard is showing off for my decoys.

It sees the hen.

And goes after it.
