one was a straight up triple and the other was 2 birds and then a pretty quick 3rd bird.....Take my son hunting some time and you'll see that even a single bird all weekend is a wild success. I'll recap the hunts for yall...
The first picture i'm posting goes with the pic where he is 4 (the first one from the earlier post) .There was 4 of us hunting and the day was mostly me watching everybody else shoot, or shoot at birds... we jumped some birds in a field and saw a few go into a a good size ditch. I drove around to the other side with my son while a few of the guys walked the ditch. I had been playing taxi for most of the day for everyone else. Anyway...turns out there was more than a couple birds in this ditch...I had one of my dogs with me that i let out and was holding on to since the walkers weren't close yet, but my son was throwing rocks and making noise and getting into some kind of mischief and i let the dog go and she ran into my end of the ditch and all hell broke loose...birds flying all over and falling out of the sky...I don't know if the kid or the dog retrieved more of them but it was pretty cool.
The second Picture goes with the second pic from the first post... this is the first two birds of three shown in that pic (this last year)....this time just me and him, got a slow start due to fog but walked down the edge of a corn field and was planning on heading to some thick cover that borders the field where i figured the birds would be. He was excited because it was saturday morning and he was asking tons of question so i asked him to be quiet and he continued talking in a slightly lower voice...The birds are hard to get out of the thick cover, and almost impossible to get out of the standing corn, but on this day we caught them traveling in between and they all panicked. I was scarcely paying attention due to my sons constant babling and because we were also heading somewhere else when a rooster appeared in front of me. I shot him and as soon as the gun fired another took off, folded him too. There was a long drawn out flush of 15 or 20 birds all down the side of the field for 150 yards or so, but wasn't close enough to most of them... He retrieved one, the dog retrieved one, I snapped this pic with my phone, and we finished our day with a bird that was in the corn just up around the corner.
