Well, that might be true fff ... But my GSP is now five years old and he has never experienced abundant and silly birds!
I figured, I owe him a trip to places like Temagami or Kirkland Lake area... Of course we should do this before moose season and snow!

So looks like a few birds are on the move. Put up10 woodcock however not a shot given. Steady dogs, tight sitting woodcock, and canopy still up all added up to more sight seeing than shooting. On the up side put up 8 grouse fortunately 1 gave me a decent opportunity and allowed me to complete a test kit for West Nile research being done.
Weathers been too nice with highs forecasted for 28'C tomorrow. Need a front to get the birds moving Still early.

That was the original plan. Instead went for pheasants, with lead ... and had to pass up a flight of teal.
