Finding Any Birds?

[Straightup82]

The snow of late has made things a litte tough, but seeing bird numbers similar to last year. ~3 coveys per 2-3 hours in the field. Good size coveys that allow you to chase some singles. How are the rest of you doing now that deer season is over?

I think pheasant are pretty similar to last year (I've got 5 so far this year on MO public land) but the quail seem to be up. I've seen a good number of quail on every hunt. The surprise to me is the number of young birds I've seen, both pheasant and quail. I've never seen this many young birds in the 11 years I've been hunting upland game. I'll give it a run this weekend and see how I do.
