Lots of birds this morning. 2 of my fields had really good birds and 1 of my fields was pretty thin. Neighbor #1 has 2 fields and both had birds. Neighbor #2 has 1 small field and he had a ton of birds, mostly Whitewings. I'm booked up for opening weekend and the guys should do good as long as the birds stick around. I probably saw somewhere around 500 birds in all 6 fields this morning. Lots of nice groups with anywhere from 4 to 20 in a group.
I finished mowing and discing yesterday, hopefully I can pull in and hold a few more now.

After the rain yesterday, I had 84 in my gravel driveway (My driveway is about 300 yards long). This morning I counted 77 at 2 of my fields. Those are the ones that were on the road and powerlines. Maybe we'll have a decent year. 2" rain yesterday and a heavy dew this morning, first dew I've had since spring I think.

How about after opening weekend? Availability/rates? Cabins are booked thru the 8th of Oct. I have room for hunters about every weekend except the first 2 weekends in Sept.

Seems to be less doves this week, we had a 2" rain last week and don't know if that had an impact but something did. It's still a couple of weeks away and I've seen this happen before and the birds moved back in. Heck ya just never know about these dang doves.
