yep, August 27th... 4+ more days until the battle begins. As if directed by PETA, the cool evenings and night time showers (personally, I shower in the morning...) that continue to dribble across the eastern plains of K-olorado are causing the birds to bunch up and prepare to migrate on. So, what will this season bring us...? Will I be surrounded by bird carcasses each evening as I take to the fields to rid the skies of this grey menace, this ferocious predator of humility, this...this...this, dare I say it(?), this winged meal? OR, will it be total SUCKAGE and all the birds will have moved on by the time the season begins? Ahhhh, I lust for the baking hot afternoon dropping sun to bring me the gnashing beaks, flashing eyes and flexing talons of these creatures I seek. The mighty wingmaster .410 is oiled and coiled..., the vest is still dusty and blood stained from last years adventures..., the old truck is resting, waiting patiently for a kick to it's foot starter and a light grind into 2nd. Dove season is ALMOST upon us and as I prepare my portable radio with batteries and ensure that the antennae is still intact (for listening to the Huskers on Saturdays while out in the field... and no, it's NOT a good 'dove call', but it's necessary) I am readying myself for the battle royale. Wish me luck sirs... wish...me...luck!
