His co-worker, 23-year-old Justin McCall, address not given, didn’t go to jail, reports show, but will have to appear in court on the same charge.
Wildlife Officer Jack Donaldson, with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, is accusing Smith of using a rifle to shoot a hen turkey on private property north of State Road 60 in the western part of the county.
Fall turkey season doesn’t start until Nov. 10, records show. And there’s no game that can be hunted legally by rifle now anyway, in bow-hunting season, commission spokeswoman Joy Hill said Friday.
Further, she said, only male turkeys — or females with beards — can be taken in season.
EDIT: Adrian knows where this is at!

Yep, the old bearded hen!! I've seen a bunch of them as well over the years, but still can't bring myself to shoot one though. Something about the spurs and awesome beards on the gobblers makes me pass every single time.
