Good idea Adam, but I have no crop fields. I did enroll the transmission line r/w into GA Power's "Wings Program" which provides a little more habitat than pine mono-cultures.

I started planting pine trees back in the '80s and all of the open land I have left on my farm is what I call a bird-field of about 40 acres which I allow to grow up in grass and weeds, then strip mow for releasing poultry. I do burn the woods which seems to create pretty habitat for birds, but my experience has been that "if you build it, they still don't show up"!

Kick-em-up quail is not wild bird hunting by any means, but at least my dogs get to smell some actual quail which they usually don't when I do my wild bird hunting. I've got old somehow and after sitting behind a desk practicing law for 40 something years, put out birds are more my speed anyhow...Geo
