Dove Outlook?

[Toney]

Drove over to Glencoe this morning, lots of birds on the stubble.

If i were a better shotgunner could have got my limit. Had fun!!!

Got two birds with only one box of ammo,

Went out this morning, took one shot, and brought home 1 bird. Only saw half a dozen birds flying. I did see a ton of geese and heard a bunch of guys banging away.

Went back to the same field in Glencoe, LOTS of birds. But they started working the fields tonight while we were hunting.

The dove have picked up out here. I've been seeing larger groups of 10-15 birds gathering on the lines near fields and ponds.

Went out scouting for bow season today at Lexington WMA and carried my shotgun with me just in case I saw any dove. Only saw two at the first place I went to, but I really got into them at the second. I flushed probably around 10-12 total out of some tall grass and saw about 7-8 more fly out of the trees when they heard the shot. This was all in the span of maybe 15 minutes.

Two of the three I recovered weren't dead when I got to them, so I had to kill them by hand (pulled their heads off). When I recovered one of them, I also got a little face to face time with an orb weaver.

I was at the farm after work today, and saw a butt load of dove flying into the food plot I put in. I didn't have a shotgun, so they must be some coming in from up north with the cool front we had?

That was my thought, too, Dennis. Too bad Lexington's dove season ends on Thursday. I really need to find my own land.

I won't be hunting dove there as its too close to deer season. shame it didn't happen earlier.
