Your picture reminded me of something I think about from time to time...two days ago I was in a climbing stand and a covey of birds gathered under me in the late afternoon sunshine. Eleven little beauties, very social, peeping and chasing each other about happily as they ate acorn fragments. These are my favorites among all the residents of my farm. Yesterday I took the dog and VH down there and shot two of them. Together with two more I got this morning they will go on the grill tonight and I am happy to have them. The coyotes Coopers Hawks and I have much in common. And I may be the worst of the bunch, having a grocery store just five miles up the road.
