Was a cool, 26 above morning and very windy. Just right for puppy dog to find me some birds. And thats just what she did. Found quite a few nice birds this morning and also shot pretty well. Stovey should be here.

"Stovey should be here."
As John Cleese once said, "dont mention the war"..........

Golly Moose...even when you are in front of the lens you manage to take a great photograph mate.

That is a damn fine looking supper in your hand mate...magnificent.

Cheers, Vince

Poor old Stovey...oh well, I 'spose when we are picking on him we are leaving everyone else alone.

Cheers, Vince

The picture is worth a 1000 words! Glad you had a great day moose2.

Good shooting moose.

Aah Pheasant under knife and fork. Some like it under glass. Me? I prefer to use my fingers and chase it with a good white wine.

Good shootin'...

YOU NEED A ROOMANTE MOOSEMAN!!!

Gorgeous shot brother, nuther nice one for the table. Save a nip er two for the furry fetcher!

Just wanted to say thanks to all of you for your nice comments. Hope you all can get to enjoy hunting these these birds on the prairies. So I'll sign off on the bird hunting for year and end with a pic from this Friday. My buddy Russ and I continue to play hooky from working in order to enjoy the fall and chase birds. Friday was another cold, cool day and we hit a spot that has produced before. The choc labs are Russ's and the oldest, Mattie, is really showing her age. It's kinda sad as I've hunted with her since she was a pup. Guess we all get old sooner or later. There is no quit in her though. We had a fine morning hunt. Managed five nice roosters and two sharptail grouse. With some better shooting, probably could have managed another rooster. Doesn't really matter though. Its all about getting out with good friends and greater yet, dogs.

Stovey! I do have an extra room at the house.

man thats a great last day hunt. thank you again for sharing its been great to see those birds, give the dog a pat from me.

Wonderful shots moose-man. You've conveyed the "feeling" to a "T".

Me and the Benelli are on the way next year fo sho cuz I'm takin my huntin' act on the road- Az for 3 type of quail and ND for some ringer's with the moose-man after that.... can't wait!
