The birds are very talkative where I'm hunting. Matter of fact I missed one yesterday. Most of the public land up north around Colville and Chewelah holds birds. Be patient. If you get one to answer but won't come any closer, just hang out and hopefully his curiosity will get the better of him. See "One Hour Rule" post. Or one of you can slip back away from the bird and call. Make him think the "hen" is walking away. Good luck!
