Even though I may never be part of a glorious twelfth shooting party I do look forwards to this day. Kind of like the official beginning of another hunting season which always comes just before my opener. 20 days and counting down here.
Stepping up field work to get ready for Dove season. Mowing strips of wheat still as the sunflowers are still filling heads in in some sections of the field. Been wet here like a lot of places. Hope to o cut some sunflowers in ten days. Corn harvest is going to be late because of such a wet Spring. That should keep the birds concentrated with a late harvest. Full season beans might be ready before some of the corn. If we can just not get a cold snap in middle September our Dove and Wood Ducks should be here in good numbers until October.
