    Great times with the dog this year. She finally started retrieving which I love.

    I haven’t yet, I’m not a cook myself. The mrs steps in for the most part, and you’re right there’s some that better than others but it’s typically a mixed bag of birds when we cook.

    Negative. Searing for the most part, and if you wrap them in bacon then it’s not only masking the taste which I’ll do….

    Tried pan fried, Peking, cubed in tacos, the best has been slow cooked and pulled. It’s the livery taste I’m not keen on, I’ll always eat them but they’re bottom of the list. Brining has helped

    California ptarmigan

    Made it out for the first time to try and chase these guys, they were introduced back in the 70s and have since made some roots in the high country. Out here our tree line ends around 10k and is about where it’s rumored these birds live. That being said, all I found was some old sign and that’s...

    Chukar solo trip

    Our numbers are way down as well here in California, just got home from a solo trip. 6 hours behind the wheel for 4 hours of hiking, great time for thought but light on birds. Great to see the pup out getting reps.

    Field Bred English Cocker Spaniel

    I’ve never owned one but a friend of mine who is a bird guide and trainer keeps a few on his string and they’re always a hit with clients. They’re the cutest damn things and always looking for ways to have fun. They’ve all seemed a bit on the mischievous side which is fun to watch when they’re...
