Stay-cation

I've been planning a bird hunt in Montana for over six months. As the time to leave drew near, it became apparent that our host wasn't up to hunting just yet. He is still healing up from an encounter with a grizzly bear (the bear spooked his horse). So yesterday we hit some of our favorite quail and pheasant spots. Here is a picture of Kenny and Dustin with our bounty. The fancy dog box you see in the background is my early Christmas present from Karen.After we had our limit of quail, I stopped to take a few pictures of the dogs on point. Here are Dustin's dog Stryker (top) and Guinness working on some quail.Today we planned to hunt ducks, but Dustin's daughter came down with a fever so he stayed home to take care of her. I took Guinness for a quick chukar hunt and managed to get a few chukars and huns. We haven't determined what we are going to do with the remaining two days of our stay-cation, but it will likely be more of the same.
