It's great to read the full story here Jim.  Congrats again on a really special bird!
 
In my mind turkey hunting is all about being where the birds want to be at the time they want to be there.  Your observations the first day paid off in spades!

Wow! That is one HUGE bird, and with a fractured thumb myself, I really appreciate the story and the pictures. I could picture myself in that blind!
Congrats!
