Come on hunting season!

[Gr8bawana]

Gambels Quail is going to be great this year if your here Oct.-Feb giant coveys everywhere!

We were at my sister in laws house last xmas and we saw several deer and quite a few quail where they live not far from Tombstone. Next time I'll have to bring a scatter-gun and get a license to chase those birds.
This pic is some birds the near the Cochise Stronghold. The country all around those hills looks quite birdy.

I believe those are Scailed Quail down near Tombstone.? Yummy!
Or could they be Mearns Quail?

I won’t get back to the states until November. But I’ll be trapping, and hunting pheasants,sharptails,and squirrels until the season ends in January.

Deer from mid-September to mid-December for me, KS, IN, MT, AZ.

That’s a busy fall! Should be lots of good times.

September 1 Waterfowl opens and on September 15 OTC elk opens. Come October I get into mulie whitetail and antelope muzzle loader season. Also October 15-19 is OTC moose hunting. If I don’t get a mulie in October the November 7-14 I plan to chase Mulies with a rifle for the last week of season. The November 15-dec 2 is whitetail Rifle season and moose re opens for November 20-24. Hoping I tag out in some species quickly so I can chase geese lots and of course I start coyote trapping late October and that runs into February

Best hunting seasons are the ones you end feeling completely exhausted. Lose 20 pounds, lose all sleep after 4 a.m. and burn 500 gallons of gas.

Squirrel opens August 1st here in Illinois. It’s usually 90 degrees and about the same for humidity but I still go. Last year I killed a limit (5) in about 2.5 hours on public land in west central Illinois on opening day, but got chiggers so bad, I could barely move for a month. Planning on doing the same this year.

lol hopefully he doesn’t get to many.... the last few days I’ve been seeing quite a few CA quail with little ones, about 35, my guess is that those parents picked up some adopted ones... most are laying second batches here now,

It's way too hot already and no monsoon yet.

First grouse camp is planned for opener. Then looking at hitting the breaks for a lot of Sept & Oct while chasing birds & scouting for the 700 rifle tag I have for elk.

Right now, it's hitting the hills & getting back in shape for the gumbo-mararthon.

Quail and turkeys are great until they turn predator. I was on a school bus where the turkey took out the windshield. Presumed was an accident. Perhaps. We lost a motorcyclist to a turkey. Stay safe out there.

Oregon motorcyclist dies after being hit by wild turkey, troopers say

The Oregon State Police said the crash happened two miles north of Moro on U.S. 97.
