Going out after pheasants this afternoon. They were turned loose Nov 1, and are as wild as March hares now. Last time out, some were getting up 100 yds in front of the dogs, and rarely flush a bird on initial point as they are running big time.
Young dog Fancy acts as if she is hurting, whining and yiping when I pick her up. Havent hunted her in 10 days, hopefully nothing, but will take to vet if she doesnt seem better tomorrow. Betty will get the call today.
Also, something new for me--flocks of sandhill cranes were flying over on Sunday while deer hunting--have never seen them around here before.
GH 16 will be carried today.
