Looking good! Can't beat the weather either.
I managed a nice grouse pot shot when I returned to the truck from my deer hunt Monday. Only bird I've connected on all season.
Still hunters out and about..be careful where you run them..Quote:

The birds have been staging for a bit and heavy areas of splash coupled with birds that rather run than fly had him churning the bush up. Forutnately Stella has played the game long enough to sort through the noise and was able to get some birds in front of the guns. Couldn't ask for a better ending to the season.

After such a nice fall, winter closed in a hurry.
finnally caught a nice day today and ventured out with the dogs. Guess I was a bit overly optimistic as found the bush covered in a blanket of softening crusty snow and where the snow was clear it was flooded. Gave the dogs a brief run for the heck of it but didn't last long as the crust was hard on their feet. To finish the outing found a grassy field for some put and take (no pictures as battery died in the camera) and called it a day.
Hopeful this break in the weather last till next Sunday.
Glad you were able to get out despite the high winds.
