Another day with the dogs

[Deleted]

We had another bird hunt at Royal United this morning.  Instead of hero shots with the guys and the birds we killed, here are two of the stars of the production.

Yep we hunted at sgl 289 in Burlington Had one rabbit chase for 3/4 hr and put up 4 cockbirds. No animals were injured in the making of this post. We had five beagles down and the rabbit chase sounded impressive.

And I have YET to see a live hen pheasant although did see several areas containing feathers of the hen variety. And surprisingly found a pile of pigeon feathers,not really an area frequented by pigeons.

On the way home saw what looked like bear drivers heading out in an area known to be frequented by Buzz & JJ's crew Can't say for sure but it's where Buzz & I rabbit hunted one day with JJ's Dad.  Wasn't going to bother em.  It's a good hunt along the creek & swamp.

Had I known it was you I would have but wasn't sure and didn't want to interrupt someones hunt. One guy was out at the road and I saw a grey p/u hauling guys out toward the swamp

JJ's truck, Jim driving. Had it been a few minutes later, Jim would have been back out near the road by the bridge and you would have known it was us. Bad timing by a few minutes.

Pretty sure that Nissan wasn't going too fast when he went past?

So far it looks like a pretty good bear season, hope it keeps up. Good luck.

Ya gots to be careful what with the rut on and bears running all over the place   not to mention the donkeys that may have stepped into the road... (not the hunters..real donkeys)

By the way, the Marlin is sighted in with a Bushnell 1.5 x 4.5 on top liking the CCI...leaving the thunderbolts for another day..another gun
