Better the brother then the dogs  . Nice work on the birds, this late in the season it is getting tough.

Actually, a couple weeks ago, we were out there and his dog got a face full of quills and paws too.
No kidding about the birds holding tight this time! We were getting really discouraged, until the afternoon the dog spooked that pheasant out of the cattails. He was out of range, though and landed in some other batch of cattails, and we went in after him, and I flushed him up, (took forever to find it after I shot it, the dog finally smelled it, it was almost under my brothers feet, he couldn't see it.) The quail did not want to move, either.
A lot of hard work and hiking around for a few birds! We had a blast, can't wait to get out three again!

Forestrover,
Looks like a good day.  What's the double gun in the picture with the quail?

That's my brother. I had to call him to find out what his gun is. He said it's a Lefever Nitro Special.

Thanks,
Tell him not to get rid of it, ever!!
