See any dove?
Neither did I.
Finally around 10am a lone dove made it's way past me on the way to the stock tank but just at the far range of my gun. I took the shot and caught a few feathers, but no kill.. An hour or so more and I called it quits. But to add insult to injury, while rolling up my driveway not 1, but 2 of the fattest dove you've ever seen flew right across the hood of my truck.
Just a second I thought, "my windshield's already busted and my gun's in the backseat, I can do this..." then common sense took over and I decided it wasn't worth it.
There is still hope, a "cold front" is predicted and maybe it will be enough to get the dove migrating.
I've got bacon, onion, garlic and jalapeno on ready alert.
A guy we were talking to after church yesterday said he was taking his son out today - he has a place near Crafton = said they have water and have seen good numbers of dove.
ReplyDeleteA friend of a friend went hunting a couple of days ago. I don't think they killed any doveessses, but oddly killed a coyote and a bobcat. My favorite comment on the Facebook page where they posted a pic of their prey: Ya'll are TERRIBLE hunters- those don't look anything like doves!
