End of Day
"Good things seem to come at end of day --
rare moments would be as rare, fair thoughts as fair
at any hour, but because the day is dying
each is the more precious as the lordly ridges swallow Time."
(From End of Day, from George Bird Evans' An Affair With Grouse
With GBE's words in mind, I thought I'd share some photos from a few of our hunts this season, all taken at end of day.
