My daughter Morgan and I are back from Nebraska and had an absolute blast! Morgan was a joy to have in the field and the dogs did great. We also divided our time between preserve and wild bird hunting and had excellent results on the wild birds, limiting our first day and taking several over the next two days. Not as many quail as last year but still ran into 3-4 coveys a day.
Took some PDJ advice and avoided the whack 'em and stack 'em photos in favor of something a bit more tasteful this year. If you check them out please note the following things of which I am particularly proud: 1) the hat my daughter picked out on her own and wore every day; and 2) the fingernails and jewelry. What a hunt! Here is the photo link: http://outdoors.webshots.com/album/556087539xKoVuf
Please leave a comment if you like it.
P.S. - If you already read this on the PDJ board I apologize but thought this was worth a cross-post.

Looks like a great time. It's nice to be able to spend that kind of time with your kids. It's especially nice to see the young ladies in the field. I have two daughters of my own and with their busy schedule I don't get to spend much time with them, especially the one that likes to hunt. Nice looking setters you have these too.
