Well 25 percent is better than 15 and 15 is better than nothing.

Stay well and don’t over do anything.

The "bird belt"--a great way to carry birds on warm days( there is a necker on each side, + game straps.
There has to be a bird around here somewhere.
Betty, age 14, got a little tired while on point, so she "set" for a while--no loss of intensity otherwise, and yes I got that bird. Fancy is backing.

Great photos! I wish all bird dogs could go as long as Betty, and I hope she has more years to enjoy. I know it's difficult to get all of the dogs good hunting time as you are transitioning to the next generation. Looks like you are doing well at getting everyone some time in the coverts, Harold.
