Grace is a tri color and Burdock an Orange Belton. Should have all colors!

Dean, she must have some great bird seasons under her by now, congratulations!! Have you hunted Maine or Vermont with her, or both?

Thanks Steve - I have hunted her exclusively in Vermont so far.

I know there are some great ruffed grouse and woodcock areas in other states but I have spent sixty-plus years familiarizing myself with the best covers in my section of the Northeast Kingdom and at nearly seventy I don't really see the benefit of scouting other states.
If all goes as planned, Grace and I should wind down at around the same time. If I don't make it to the goal my grandson Cam will take her 'til she can't hunt anymore.... Was it Shakespeare who penned the words "The best laid plans of mice and men oft gang awry."?

I certainly hope nothing goes awry in the case of Grace and me.
