Was able to take advantage of a rainy, damp and foggy woodcock opener today. Cedar and I were fortunate to find my favorite Longbill cover at full capacity, with flight birds this morning. He was electric in the tag alder, handling the big-eyes like a gentleman. He also set up ol ruff perfect for me only to miss him with both barrels, I've shot 7 rounds at that cock bird in the past three seasons, next time I will let him fly, he has earned it.
Good for you both, David!
ReplyDeleteMy ECS Gordie has been doctoring for an infection resulting from an insect bite near his right eye. So I let him off easy today. But he's responding well to treatment, so we'll be in high gear, I bet, by Tuesday or so.
Love that photo. We've been granted an early woodcock season down here, 1 week around Thanksgiving, and I can't wait. By the time our normal season rolled around last year the ground was so frozen the birds had all moved further south. Good lookin' setter you got there.
