Kansas is Quiet

Can hardly hear a sound in the Kansas forum. Shhh. Hear anything? Not a peep, cackle, or a caw. Wait a minute. In the distance, a dull roar. Ah, the combines of wheat harvest. The wheat looks great around the state. Thick, high stubble fields will be waiting for us in November. Some farmers still don't put herbicide on the stubble which leads to weed patches and weedy terrace channels, favorites of hunkering cock pheasants. Some farmers use stripper headers on their combines that leave the entire shaft in the field and much higher cover. Some farmers' terraces are in erosion control vegetation, creating pheasant habitats in the middle of feeding areas. Walk-in acreage continues to increase. Yes, it's pretty quiet, but aren't things looking up for November?

Another excellent eloquent composition from our friend Britchaser. That created some very vibrant day dreams for me and I appreciate it. A person needs things like that to help get through the day sometimes!
 
Thanks for the post I can picture it all. You really put a smile on a fellas face even if he is so far from home. The picture just painted will surelly get me through the rest of these long, hot Iraqi summer days, thanks.

I'd say this guy needs more than we do to get through some of his days!!

Hang in there Cory. With a bit of luck you'll be home by bird season:cheers:
 
Thanks Chad! I will be home for a slice of the action but not all of it but hey some is better than none in my book. We will have to get together and wear out the birds, if we don't a couple of beers will taste good none the less.

BULLSH!T!! We're going bird hunting if you're here during season and that's all there is to it. You gotta see the bird monster birthed from the womb of your beloved Molly Trekker. The birds won't have a chance with him and his sister on the ground:thumbsup:
 
It sounds like a good deal to me. I am excited to see what he has become. I think the trio should do quite well, almost makes me feel kinda bad for the birds. I know that Liberty aka the Prodigy has really come into her own as a young bird dog and I am quite certain that Tate has as well. None the less I look forward to making some good memories with a good friend behind some honest dog work.
 
Here's another one of Cory's pups. Just prior to me coming up and checking in up here she was snoring on the couch with my wife.

Happy Dog Katy is the official name...

Thank you for serving in a theater of war. Be safe, come home, and come to the great and hospitable state of Kansas for some good hunting.

Maybe you guys should shoot for January 15 to meet up with the rest of us. I believe we're going to call Dodge City base for the day, have lunch, then split into manageable/comfortable sized groups and head out to some WIHA (unless there is a group interested in going to my dad's to hunt private).
 
Chad that would be excellent but I won't be home then. It looks like I will be home for the last two weeks of December which really aren't the greatest for getting people together with the holidays and such. Who knows though it is all subject to change.
