It was a terrific season in the NEK of Vermont and Berkshires of Massachusetts! Both of our Llewellins did great on both Woodcock and Grouse. A few pics from the season: Vermont Base of operations  Fall in New England          The neighbors     The dogs       The birds        See you next October   "I speak of Africa and golden joys; the joy of wandering through lonely lands; the joy of hunting the mighty and terrible lords of the wilderness, the cunning, the wary and the grim." Theodore Roosevelt, Khartoum, March 15, 1910 | ||

Superb photos! But that sure doesn't look like Texas quail country or Kansas pheasant cover!  I plan on hunting grouse and woodcock next year with Libby Camps in Maine. Can't wait for the experience. On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

Thanks all, Bwana, I have hunted the area near Libby's often and you will get into birds there. That part of Aroostook county has lots of room to roam around and the forest practice up there lends itself to great Pa'tridge numbers.

Awesome pics! Sure miss hunting the timberdoodles in the Fall in the old orchards and the smell of the MAples. Now my Gordon and I chase Huns and Sharptails. What kind of Side by Side do you shoot? I have a nice Parker 20 bore that does a good job when I'm on. | |||

Looking forward to it! See you in October.  "I speak of Africa and golden joys; the joy of wandering through lonely lands; the joy of hunting the mighty and terrible lords of the wilderness, the cunning, the wary and the grim." Theodore Roosevelt, Khartoum, March 15, 1910 | |||

Don't know how I missed this, as I am a regular here. Fabulous photos, Atticus! Many thanks for posting. Winter has been very mild so far. Waiting for the other snowshoe to drop! Mike Wilderness is my cathedral, and hunting is my prayer. | |||

Thanks Mike, It has been a great winter for keeping the dogs in shape. Should be good for the birds too. Soon the Woodcock will return and begin dancing int the sunset sky and it starts all over again.

Only 100 days until the opener in the Northern New England states. There is still plenty of fishing, gardening and yard work to do so I am not wishing away the summer. However these last few days of near 100 degree temps has me thinking of Vermont in October and the Berkshires in November.
