Every year I make the pilgrimage to Monahans to shoot at more dove than one can count. It was an exceptional year.
This week a friend of the family and I were talking birds. He commented that he had an unusual amount of dove that fly over his house twice a day. WE set a time and I show up.
He lives in a mildly populated area on the outskirts of Waco. He told me the birds fly by every morning but are too high to shoot. They return late in the evening.
Sure enough...about 7:00pm we are mauled. Birds flying by as thick as skeeters in Florida. WE had a fast thirty minutes of shooting. Then they just quit.
Simple explaination is, these are local "town birds" that are going from roost to feed and back. I've not had that kind of fun in this part of the world. Seemed like west TX all over again. Large selection of White Wings.
How is everyone elses season going?
