Chicken season opened on the first and since then I've been out three times and only have one spruce grouse to show for my efforts.

Someone told me that the long cold wet spring was really harsh on this years eggs/chicks and I can believe that. It's either that or I didn't leave enough "seed" in my favourite hunting spots. lol

One guy on a local forum is always bragging about how many birds he is shooting. Yeah we all know a guy like that don't we? Pics or shut up. lol

Hope I can get into some soon and I'll post a pic if I do but if you guys get some birds post pics pls.

The coon hunters club back in the 70's imported some brown color swamp coons from South Georgia. There were only larger black mountain coons here before and not many. The swamp coons are numerous now and NC Wildlife believes they are responsible for the demise of the Grouse and quail that used to be plentiful here, the coons finding and eating the nests.

Coyotes usually get theblame around here for the lack of quail.They surely don't help, but I think the fact that no one traps here anymore (very few, nothing like 30 40 years agao.) means more predators in general.
