Our season opens tomorrow. Saw six jakes with one 4-bearded longbeard this morning, plus heard one more at that location. Heard three at another location. Should get into some action in the first few days. I'll try to remember you're wanting some feathers.

When you say "trimmed along the base of the wing," do you mean like, cut them off close with scissors?
