Pesky Opossum
« on: March 28, 2009, 02:39:00 PM »
I was out scouting today for turkey and snuck up on this possum near the turkey's roosting area. A 15 yd shot and he expired withing 25ft. A few more eggs should be able to hatch now without the threat of this egg snatcher.  :bigsmyl:  

 
Just one more step please!

Good decision, Arwin.  Possums and coons are really hard on turkey eggs.  They will take a nest a night if they find it.
Good judgement comes from experience.  Experience comes from bad judgement.

Nice! Possums and racoons really do put the whammy on turkey eggs. Nice shot.
