Tried to get New England Grouse Shooting from the Library, bu tno luck. I have been succesful at the Library in getting original editions of Burton Spiller's Grouse Feathers, More Grouse Feathers, Drummer in the Woods and others. I read those again late this summer.

Back for a couple of days from grouse hunting in Michigan. Birds are up, but it was still quite green. More so than usual for this time of year. The woodcock seem to be bouncing back and that was nice to see.

Best of luck to those of you have Oct 1st openers.
