When this area was still rice farmed we had a few birds here but they have disappeared along with the rice farming not many rice farms until you get around Winnie-Stowell and I don't think they have any birds ,mostly geese

Pics like yours reminded me of pics taken back in the heyday of pheasant hunting here in Michigan of the `50`s and `60`s. Somewhere in my shoe boxes of B/W photos are pics like yours. I still can remember the noise a fat grain field raised rooster made when flushed from grain stubble or a corn field. Had a mixed breed pointer/german shepard dog that was the best self trained hunter I`ve hunted over, actually grabbed a flushing rooster right out of the air in a jump once. I carried a Model 12 Featherweight in 12 gauge back then and used paper shotshells of #6 shot `High Brass` we called them.Robert
