Default Gun with Dead Bird Picture

Everyone else has one, so I figured I should too. It's 90 degrees ccw and I can't figure out how to fix it.

Up on the "dirts" where Edgar killed that one we used to throw rocks at them and kill them on the roadsides. I once threw nine rocks at one bird before he walked into the thick brush.... never touched him. (probably wouldn't have done any better with a shotgun)

Both the birds and I were pretty stupid back then....


So Edgar, did you shoot him?

In fact he did shoot it with that gun. It is his sweet handling DHE 20 with the short barrels. A very desirable gun for the thick cover north of Greenville, up around Kokadjo. I'm a bit envious of Edgar.

Not only did I shoot him, he was in the air, and bookin' for the thick stuff.
I'd rather get one that way than 5 in the road.

I flushed this guy, then tracked him down three times before he fell to the 24" Red Headed Stepchild.

I don't know why pictures taken with an iPhone store correctly, but transfer yeeyaw.
