Wife and I decided to do a quick dove hunt this afternoon. Weather was cold and super windy. Didn’t see any flying but it was nice to be outdoors. Walking back to the truck I heard a woodcock mating call. 5 min of LST left and I decided to go for it. Killed one flying in as I approached the one calling. Stood still for a second and he kept calling. Worked towards him close enough to flush and shot him when he came up. Turned around to holler to my wife and saw another and missed that one. Then we played the “I coulda swore I saw it go down right here” game for awhile and recovered both birds. Definitely an unexpected blessing on a cold windy day!
