Both birds nicely retrieved by Doodle. Shot them with a Beretta BL3 20, as Garry Gordon once said, nothing wrong with a sexy Italian.
That afternoon switched to my 28 Ugartechea and dropped this nice cock bird, also over Doodle.
Willie is limping on her right front foot, so held her up today.
Quit early and back at cabin relaxing.

You look like you're having just too much fun, Harold. Thanks for spreading the joy.
BTW, beware of sexy Italians...unless they're will to let you buy guns.
