Can't it be sickening to see birds like that in someone's yard? But, those birds have to roost somewhere. Maybe if you could gain permission form the landowner to hunt the adjacent land, you just might be able to call in one of those longbeards. However, some people enjoy them coming up so they can admire them.

well, your doing good if the hen didn't spot you...and a hen is as good of a decoy as you can get!

you'll get a bird, just keep trying.
