My 2 young pups need to get out and see some birds, so may need to go to a preserve

Harold,

Where in Ohio? I lived in Athens while in grad school and continued to go back to SE OH to grouse hunt until the well-meaning, but ignorant "conservationists" put a stop to timber sales in the Wayne National Forest. Your hunt sounds bittersweet. Sometimes when bird numbers are down and we've had several poor hunts in a row, even a single bird makes for a great day. I hope yours was.
