Title: snow birds
Post by: ribka on November 21, 2010, 06:16:20 PM: Went out today after a fresh snow fall. Jumped 3 coveys of quail and some huns. Dog did great today. I decided to only shot 4. Enough for the wife and I for dinner. Saw a lot of coyote tracks near where the quail hang out so did not want to shoot too many today.

Went out later shot a yote using a mouth call and saw some deer and many elk.

Saw 4 yotes and could have smoked all four, but NO gun. Saw probably 25 deer tonight, half of them in areas I can hunt starting Weds with the late muzzy....can't wait!
