We went back out to chukar country in the middle of January. Brought a couple home. Made contacts with at least 5 coveys each day, birds were spooky on the sunny sides. Seemed to hold a little better if they were on the shady side. It was definitely worth the drive to get a puppy on so many wild birds. He definitely improved and was proficient at working in on the coveys from a couple hundred yards out if the wind was cooperative. We need to work on how we approach them a little better so I get better shots and we get to pick a couple up before they fly across the canyons.
