Same here Sam. Looks nice.
We still have some nice green with the cover crops I planted this year.
But yeah, the native is still a touch green as well.
I assume the birds like it too. Calves and replacements getting fat!
I am MAGA.

Another great photo!! I sure enjoy seeing that country.. It would be nice to hear birds singing.. My hearing is so bad, I thought they all died from DDT..

NO Sage Grouse. But I tried.
Did knock down two more Sharps and a Hun though.

Sheeit.
Sorry about that. Long way to go for nothing.
The farmer and the NRCS bird lady swore that there was a great population down there.

It wasn't for nothing. I had a blast Jim.
Thanks again for the hookup.

FWIW I haven't seen any sage hens this year where I often times noticed them last year.
Hail storms?

You're not seeing them because I'm looking for them.
I'm going hunting in Scobey later this month. I would like to swing by the Olson's and drink all their beer if you're available.

I'm also not looking for them so seeing them is harder.
We will probably be here, Rancho is driving up next weekend....

YO RANCHO!
Yesterday morning I kicked up a monster jack and my lab gave chase. He was gaining fast and my first two patterns of #5's were landing between him and the rabbit as they flew across the stubble. I rolled the jack on the 3rd shot and it slowed him down a smidge.
My retard dog kept chasing him, the rabbit juked, but the dog still caught up to him. I was dying laughing as I yelled "That rabbit is going to kick your fugking ass!"
I was wrong though. That rabbit screamed like a newborn baby as lard ass chomped him into mush. When the homicide was complete he just sort of stood there, and looked at me as if to say 'What now?'
Almost made me like him.

Sharptail are dang near unapproachable in my usual spots. I guess that is what a solid month of chasing them will do.
Did get some huns this weekend though.
I probably hit more elk with a pickup than you have with a rifle. I have yet to see anyone claim Leupold has never had to fix an optic. I know I have sent a few back. 2 MK 6s, a VX-6, and 3 VX-111s.

I don't know if John is still checking in on this thread, but I used Eileen's "Posh Partridge" recipe out of her upland game cookbook, and holy smokes. That page is definitely getting a sticky note for future reference.

Rancho just hit the trail back to the land of beautiful people.... Pretty sure we scared more cock than we killed(I missed 2 absolute gimme's yesterday). And there are less birds around this year than last. But of course still fun, super weather.

Thanks Wyo, pheasant hunting is one reason why I love it here.
Rancho was above me in some thick brush/trees and we knew there were birds hiding so I posted up below him in an attempt to ambush.
Stood for a minute in the most open spot I could find which was still very full of limbs. All of a sudden I hear a rustle in the leaves......!
Goddammm rooster came sprinting up to me, stopped at literally 4-5', did the quickest 180 degree turn in history and blew out through the branches.
I did some quick 'landscaping' with the 16 gauge and needless to say didn't so much as draw a feather. Trimmed a few little branches and the bird is probably still laughing.
