I'll send in the tag info today and post the results. It was in my bag before I saw the band. Told my buddy to check his birds for bands and the first one I pulled out had one. I just about fell over.
Hatched in 2015. Banded in general area where taken.

I will appreciate the extra week at the tag end of our dove season in January when the full grown migratory birds make up most of the bag. But I sure do miss the Labor Day three day weekend opening we usually have here in GA.
I did spend the weekend with the usual crew, fishing, eating, drinking, arrowhead hunting (picked up two cargo pockets full), and misspent a saturday afternoon shooting "Annie Oakley" with a ten thrower portable skeet machine. And a bunch of expert shots.
The shooting cost me a little money due to the fact they didn't let on that the shooting was going to be for money, and I brought an old back action English underlever hammer single squirrel gun while they all brought their competition guns. They didn't throw any targets that looked anything like a squirrel to me!...Geo

Worst Dove opener in My life. Plenty of sunflowers corn and soybeans and not 1 dove flying. around 30 people around 200 acres and not a single bird flying.

Those are some great pics, Bob. Glad you had a good opener. Was that "90", next to the time on your auto dashboard, the temp? Surely not, at 4:29 a.m. !! SRH
May God bless America and those who defend her.

How many states allow shooting early season doves off the roost. I notice that Pennsylvania allows that now. Maryland does not.
