Nice,, birds are a little scarce around here but a few around.

Got out this morning doing some scouting for deer hunting next month, got way back into no mans land. Took the .410 along for some grouse and wasn’t disappointed. Was able to get 4 fresh Grouse for supper, 2 Spruce Grouse and 2 Ruffed Grouse. Ruffed Grouse are by far my favourite wild meat, if they were the size of a deer that’s all I would ever hunt lol.

We keep it all, rule in my house you kill it, you use it and eat it. Necks, backs, gizzards and hearts all good.


Few basic seasonings and let marinade for a 1/2 hr or so.


Fried in a little Olive oil served with Scalloped Potatoes and Spinach salad.

Thanks for the pictures Speckle and Walleyes:

Given the areas you both hunt in I am wondering if you ever encounter Hungarian partridge.

For Speckle, Hungarian partridge might be a little too far west.

For Walleyes Hungarian partridge might be a too far north.

But one has to remember that Sharp tail are starting to be spotted in your areas.

White tail deer were rarely seen in Speckle's area in the 70's. I am not sure how the white tail populations have changed in Walleye's area, but the mule deer population has exploded around where Axeman and I hunt.

Just wondering.

Thanks.

No Huns in my area and not many Sharpies. Some Sharpies in the farmers fields you will see in flight at times but I have yet to see any in the bush.
Ther are small groups of Mulie out here but not in great numbers. Very rare to see any in the bush and a few in the fields here and there.
