I appreciate this post. Took our first trip to Maine, and one of our party was very displeased with the number of birds we encountered, seemingly believing you walk into Maine and hammer a limit every day easily. I have been hearing it didn't compare to last year. Next year I'm going later as we had all the leaves and temps near 70. And perusing my 25 years of journals I don't find that I flushed more birds with a dog than without (except pheasant) but I sure enjoy working over a dog. Great job walking them up.
