Nice quail hunt.

Son, Rusty, and I went for the morning on Saturday on some private land open to the public. We got up a big covey and I dropped a bird out of that flush, no point, though. Maggie, the French Brittany, pointed the downed bird and I retreived it. She pointed a single which survived two shots from me and we finished walking the rest of the tree line with another single point without a shot. We crossed the tree line and worked down the other side where we thought the rest of the singles went. We got 2 more solid points on singles and Rusty shot at both, dropping one.  Maggie did a great retreive on the one he shot. All in all a really good hunt considering it was public access land. Since most of the conservation quail areas close on 12-20 the places to hunt public land are fewer this time of year. We saw a small herd of 3 deer, a flock of turkeys and a ton of red tailed hawks, which is Rusty's and my spirit animal.
