    like a fox. The dude may be coming in a little too hard and crazy but 90% of everything he says is correct.

    Ha Ha. We saw the dude with the parrot a couple of weeks ago. Gotta be a story there.

    When we passed by one of the kids made their best parrot sound and the bird yelled it right back. We laughed.

    My new lease is 1100 acres of mostly open ag fields not hunted in many years
    Peanuts, soy beans and corn
    The farmer told me the doves love the peanut parcel
    Going to walk it all this weekend and figure out how to dove hunt the place

    I haven't looked, probably have a fair amount.

    I've shot a lot of birds over peanuts.

    .25 acres, mostly clover and assorted native grasses.

    Cut it yesterday and saw 3 doves in it. My neighbors may not appreciate me shooting them though.

    Damn right. I had a few hunts over peanuts up around Society Hill years ago.
    Birds were so thick pouring into the field they'd knock your hat off your head.
