Last Day of Bird Season

Post by averageguy » Fri Feb 01, 2019 8:21 am

A Buddy, Spud and I make the most of the last day of Bird Season yesterday.

Heading out at mid-day Wed driving to our hunt. Was 17 below that morning. Had some concerns as to the wisdom of traveling and dog/hunt logistics in that weather but not enough to miss the last day of season. Glad we went. It dawned 6 degrees yesterday and using a camera was a challenge as I had to pull off heavy gloves, wake up a frozen battery camera, frosted lens and viewfinder, poor focus ... Did the best I could.

First point of the Day on a Single.

One of Many. Every bird that hit the ground was recovered.

Covey Point. Birds were running in brush, Spud relocated, looped out in front and cut them off a moment after I snapped the photo. Should have been taking video.

Last Bird of our 2 man limit taken off a point on a single.

A worn out old Birdhunter. Our Best day on Bobs this season. 7 coveys and more work on singles than I could keep count of. Blessed.
