First bird of the day - one shot - a head shot - put him down for keeps fluttering in the brightly hued leaf litter on the ground.
It seems the ruffed grouse numbers may have plunged into a deep and sudden down cycle as our flushes for these two days was less than 20% of what we would have seen on any two days of the last five or six years in our section of Vermont.
