Starting Again

The 2010 Montana upland season has finally come around.  While summer has been  fun, with lots of gopher and prairie dog shooting, it's the cool fall air and turning leaves that get my blood flowing.  It's still a little on the warm side for any serious hunting, but I've had the dogs out a few times, and have found a few birds.  I'm looking forward to lots of good hunts, and hopefully some nice trips, and I'm pretty sure the dogs are too.

Here's Bull literally five minutes into our first foray afield in 2010.

And just a few minutes further, and another group of sharptails.

Bull with another find.

And here's Ivy making a nice cast.
