I plan on running the dog on Saturday and that will probably be it. Maybe early next week. I don't see any more snow in the forecast so I don't want to mess up any nesting. I saw pics from Maine with clutches surrounded by snow this past week.
Well took a bit of searching but finally laid eyes on a pair of birds. With the pending rain and nature of spring birds unable to confirm the points with photographic proof but will try again tomorrow. Suffice to say relieved I finally can say yup they're back.
Good walk this morning 5 points on jumpy birds so again unfortunately no photographic confirmation. Learning a new property so haven't developed a milk run loop yet but looking good so far.
Got to work tomorrow but Sunday and Tuesday will be out for an early morning search.
I travelled a ways today, hit a spot that loads up with birds in early November.
We did not see even one bird.
And this spot is loaded from Halloween to Remembrance Day.
I guess I will check it again in two weeks?
First bird of the year was contacted on the morning walk today.
In the afternoon, 3 dogs had 4 finds, each had a nice point, including the pup (just turn one yo).
Normally I'd find many more birds in that cover, weird year.
Think that dry period effected the birds. Typical places I'd find them in previous years totally barren now. On the up side found a new area holding birds. Its much wetter and I think it will become my new favorite neighborhood local.Quote:
