Opening Weekend

[Roundsworth]

These worms look like fine spaghetti and are situated between the skin and breast. I did not find any in the internal organs. The only part that gives me the willies is that there were quite a few in each bird. That fact tells me that they reproduce in the bird. It takes but a few seconds to field dress the birds, but there were so many worms that they caught my attention almost immediately.

Jack, I have Thinsulate gloves that help to about 30 F. They are about as bulky as I can wear and still be able to safely operate my gun. Below 30 F, I have a small Jon-E handwarmer that burns for 8+ hours. Otherwise, I end up missing out on quite afew days/weeks of grouse hunting.
