Archie's first bird
Last weekend Archie made his first foray into the MI coverts of Oscoda County and connected. The weather cleared somewhat on Saturday but the woods were still dripping. He found his first grouse in the afternoon, but his shooter failed to do his part. Sunday noon he found his second, though small, with complete success. A few pics: first, Saturday dinner of bacon wrapped woodcock breasts and butterflied backstrap pieces and beans; next, Archie and hs mentor, Pete, bickering on the shore of Muskrat Lake; next, a couple of migrants resting on Muskrat Lake; last is Archie and his new found game.
