Currently in Stafford County. I do most of my hunting at either the C.F. Phelps or Highland WMA. Due to the various travel restrictions I didn't make my annual trips home to Upstate New York to duck hunt. I did manage to get to Maine for a bear hunt, and hunted a week of the muzzleloader season in the Adirondacks. Once the muzzleloader season wrapped up in Virginia I focused on Hannah and the Woodcock. We hunted nearly every day of the second split. She found a lot of birds. Didn't want to pick them up at first. After the flush and shot she would start searching for another bird. I took a pair of wings and put them on a tennis ball with rubber bands and tossed it around the yard for her. She went bonkers over that and the light came on. Still some work to do, but it was a great second season for her. Duck season was pretty poor for me overall.
