I love them all day birds. I worked one last year from sun up till 2pm. The last spot was over a mile from where it begun, he won that one though.

Cool picture and congrat's! I chased one 2 1/2 miles through the Ozark timbered ridges and hollers last year, eventually he took a ride home with me and it was one of my most cherished hunting memories.

A huge congrats. I know what you mean by every second of it. I worked one until I ran out of time and never got him. Several hours and no bird but worth the excitement. Great job. reflex264
