Searching for that intoxicating scent.
We found them in the thickest part of the covert.
The intensity of a point.
Back at the truck I reflected back on Copper's first trip to the Shawnee covert as a 7 month old pup pointing woodcock like a pro, and of a magical day when she was 3 years old and the Shawnee was full of woodcock and I took 3 birds over her intense points. It was the only time I've taken a full limit of woodcock and I'm glad I did on that special day. Now as she approaches her 9th birthday I know, as with Hattie, that her days are drawing to a close, but thank her for the wonderful memories that she has given me.

Very nice shots Rick. Good for you and Copp!
I know the season's closed and you weren't shooting when you took these pics, but it's gotta be a special talent to squeeze off a shot in cover like that. My hat's off to you guys up north.
