Use a barred owl recipe, they taste very similar. Just sayin', for a friend.

I hunted with a dog handler a few years ago that carried a boomerang. When the Blue Quail want to run in front of a point, he'd whip the boomerang over them and, not always, but frequently they would freeze in cover.

I knew of a guy who cleaned and cooked a hawk once. When asked how he tasted he paused and replied, "Most like an owl".

The best wild game I have had is woodcock. Then again, it was once and it was done by professionals. It was pretty dang good though and both my sons can back me up

Well done Quail Diablo is to die for as is quail marinated and grilled, Pheasant casserole with wild rice high up there. On 4 feet, Caribou hands down.

Maybe hawks will keep the decoy population in check.

Well I got all fired up and mowed my paths for the 3rd time this year. I set a half dozen nuisance animal traps since there’s raccoon poop all over my hunting shack floor. I’m sure there will be full traps in the morning. I saw a huge mink today running down by my creek as well. Won’t hurt my feelings if he accidentally gets caught.
