Opening day part II

[Furseeker]

Well after finishing a few things around the house I was able to get out for the second time today. I went back to dairy and this time I didn’t even bother getting the shotgun out. I just took the B28 and the 350 Feuerkraft Pro Compact. To be perfectly honest I’m not quite sure how many each gun harvested but it was probably pretty close to a 50/50 split. I also ended up taking 2 starlings when things slowed down and they were good for keeping my head in the game. It’s been along time since I’ve shot an adult starling and I forgot just how pretty they can be. I did end up loosing one bird and I had a few fly offs. I made a truly long shot with the B28, somewhere out to about 65 yards, and I will never tire of hearing the pellet strike home from that kind of distance. I could have taken a lot more with the shotgun but I couldn’t have had a better time.

Just sat down to relax for the evening and something disturbing came to mind now that I've had a chance to wind down. I woke up this morning and purchased my Utah small game permit which cost me 30 bucks. Then  went out and shot a total of 13 birds today, 12 of which were the Eurasian Collared Doves, which don't require a license. So basically the one and only Mourning Dove I shot today was a 30 dollar bird. Good thing grouse and pheasant season is just around the corner!

Very nice shooting Dave and awesome pics!  You guys have tons of those Eurasian doves.  I see you used the 2 cousins, the 350 and B28 : )  Which one do you like better?

That Starling looks pretty fat.  I wonder if it's carrying eggs in its belly.  I have never shot or seen a Starling that looked so bulky.
