Dove Hunt

Went for a dove hunt this afternoon at a gravel pit. Dove's freaquent gravel pits to "gravel", meaning they eat grit to help crush seed for digestion. Today's hunt did not go well, as the birds have been scattered due to cooler weather, and widespread corn picking, however I killed a few.
