Zoey's first Bird and retrieve

Zoey is an 8 month old Springer Spaniel. We had the Wisconsin Grouse opener this weekend and Zoey had her first find and retrieve.

Title: A Limit of Woodcock for Zoey

A Limit of Woodcock for Zoey

It never fails that while hunting pheasants at the local public hunting grounds I happen onto woodcock. Of course the only shells I have along are pheasant loads and I have to pass on my favorite bird.

This time it was different, I remembered to bring woodcock loads with me and I had a hunt to remember. We moved scores of birds and had our limit in short time. I went back to the same spot the next day and not a bird was found, the flight had moved on.
