I'm with you Richard. I might even consider camping out to help protect a covey of quail on my property if they ever come back. The only reason I take an occasional deer close to the house is the numbers are increasing to the point that my harvest does almost nothing to thin the herd. They are small here and so numerous that even my dog has given up chasing them unless I'm with him. It's kinda like "see boss, I'm shaking the bush". He does the same thing with squirrels when I'm with him. Hope your buddies come back. Bob
