We hunted Oct 21st. thru 26th and temps were moderate with light snow one day and heavy winds.Leaves were mostly down but plenty of birds did flush early.I also noticed some tree flushes.
Dogs we hunted over most had bells on and it seemed like the birds(Enough to notice)would flush as soon as the dog stopped.Other guide had no beeper or bells on his dogs and we got consistently closer flushes.Woodcock don't seem to mine either.
Did notice birds hopping into trees as dogs approach.Just whole new experience across the board having never hunted the UP before.
Going back for sure.
Next season got to figure a way to take more pictures.Got spooked trying to carry my phone with all the hang ups we went thru.I guess I'll pull out one of those old camera's to carry along.
