Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

Larry,
We shot these in the morning as they came into a cut sunflower field. I had the right spot, as it turned out and both flocks of 25 or more and singles/doubles came over. I could have shot many more.
We shoot them over flushing dogs in the CRP grass just before dark as well. I’ve attached a pic of a big male chicken I shot last season in the CRP and a pic of me freezing in a lawn chair waiting for them in the morning. 
I have mounted chickens and sharptails. They make beautiful mounts!
Brett

Brett, I envy your access to prairie chickens. They are a special part of the history of the Great Plains.
