Default End of Season

Bird hunting season is close to the end but we have found that an end of season hunt makes the winter go quickly. We go home and start looking at the fishing equipment. I am waiting for the San Juan to open .

On the southern high plains all is good.

Very nice Bruce! And with a good bunch of guys - I'm envious!

A few more. Fun with Bert and Fielder.

Last day of the season for us. Started at 28 degrees and winds 15 to 20 gusts to 35. Cold when we started but by the end of the day the wind was down and 55 degrees.

We did well on all wild quail out here. 6-8 coveys per day and everyone had opportunities.

The other guys are leaving on Friday , I am staying around to fly a Super Cub then do a biennial review for a fellow who has a 1948 Piper Super Cruiser . I will post aerial photographs .

Bruce, looks like a good time, and definitely more birds than in the eastern part of OK where on our best day we found two coveys.

Do you have to boot your dogs where you are hunting?

I have never booted my dogs. There are some sand burrs but their feet toughen up and they get used to it. That goes for ground prickly pear also.
