Happy Saturday All!
Today is the Wisconsin pheasant opener, the start of our 10 week hunting season. You are only allowed to shoot male birds called roosters and the opening weekend you can only shoot one bird each day. After opening weekend you are allowed 2 birds per day. There aren’t many wild pheasants in WI so the DNR (Department Of Natural Resources) will raise rooster pheasants and release them onto public hunting grounds that the DNR owns. We are lucky that we live in the middle of many acre’s of public hunting grounds. Back in the day I would take both Norman and his daughter Nellie. Look how young Nellie looks in these pictures.

Happy hunting! We dread this time of year because there are some hunting fields close to us and poor Katie is terrified of the gun shot noise. Now with tracking, Bailie and Mom also have to be careful where they go to track. Hope you get some pheasant!
Hi there!
Thanks so much for joining Rucks and Earl & Ethel for Sepia Saturday!
Lots of Woofs from Earl, Ethel and I at Earl’s World!
I am so intrigued, wish I could watch this take place in person! Happy hunting and please keep sharing!
Nellie did look so young in that photo!! They stock pheasant around here too and I saw on the news recently that they just did it. They used to do it closer to our home though, and then we’d see pheasant at our bird feeders over the winter (the ones that got away I guess)!
Nellie does look young! And they both look proud and beautiful!
Hugs, Carrie and Pups x

She looks very young and I always notice how proud they are of their success. Enjoy your hunting 🙂
Wonderful pictures. Have they ever tried to reintroduce pheasant?
Thanks for joining in on the Pet parade! Norman had such an intelligence in his eyes. I can really feel it in these shots.
