They're still out there!

Got out today, for only the third time this year. Just me and Spencer, my 8-year old yellow lab. Light wind, high about 52, but for some reason, birds were getting up just about perfect. I saw about 150 birds in smaller bunches all day long. I finished up before noon, so I spent the afternoon looking for quail. Found a couple coveys, and got 1 out of each. All in all, best day in a long while! Here's a couple pics (before the last quail came to rest).

I also found a new favorite field. An unbelievable 8 sq. mile matrix of corn and milo stubble circles, cut through with weedy gullies, and just enough thick stuff around the edges. Lots of little hills too, which I always like. I discovered it after I had my limit, but I hope to head there tomorrow, weather permitting.

Sounds like a great day and you even got some more scouting in. Your Spencer looks just like my older lab Cody. Nice picture and thanks for sharing.

Must of been hunting down S.E. Colorado ???
 
Yes I was. I was planning on a NE trip, but with the forecast, decided to head south at Limon instead. Check my other thread (accidentally posted two on this topic) to see a few more pics. See if you can identify the abandoned church for a clue as to where I was!
