Default Last day wild bird hunt in Kansas
Spent the last day of the Kansas season with four local friends that have been great hunting partners for decades. We had good weather and dog work. Small bores were the choice of the day. Last day of wild birds for the dogs for another year.

Glad you did well, Tom. We hunted earlier in the week in South-central Kansas and had, for us, good hunting in spectacular weather. I love Kansas.

A great day and end of the season.
Are those all labs?

Dogs are black, yellow, chocolate labs, golden retrievers, and brittany (my dog in the middle).
