We have been out a couple times after prairie grouse. A huge sunflower field is messing things up currently. Lots of grouse around, lots of hawks too and 3-4000 acres of sunflowers next to our pasture isn't helping. Things might straighten out in a few weeks.

Nice sage hen you got there, I haven't taken one in ten years. The season was open, then closed, then tags were issued and now closed again. Fun birds to hunt.

I'm in the Black Hills right now working on some projects and hoping to get out after a ruff or two this week.
