The sun angle is steepening and a hint of humidity hangs in the atmosphere this morning. A breath of fresh air from the blow-drier conditions we continue to endure in eastern Washington. That soft orange glow lingers, extending twilight on both ends of the day. It’s beginning to look and feel like bird season. Like a new blank canvas has been laid out in preparation for the scene to unfold in the mind’s eye. Will the flush be quail, pheasant or Hun? It’s nearly time.
A little pre-season practice for the mourning dove opener. How do you prepare for the upland seasons?
We need some more data points to know if this actually works, but trying to call collared doves seemed to get them moving a bit more.

Getting puppy fever again 😬 Had the pleasure to meet Rita, a Llewellin pup from Martin Setters. True to the breed, she was spunky, sweet, birdy, and gorgeous! So far, she has all the right stuff to be a fine bird dog.
Been working with this one a lot this summer. She is doing better on “woah” but still needs leash or check cord assistance at times. I am optimistic that she will hunt more for the gun this fall based on the improvement in our relationship over everything else. She lives for the flush, but needs to stand and allow me to do it. For now we continue to train on basic skills and pigeon work.
