I went to the club on Saturday to set up my blind. I was filled with anticipation of Monday's opening day. The weather had been really chilly so I wasn't sure how that would effect the birds, however. When I got to the club it was quite chilly and I went to the blind and sat calling until about 8. I decided to get up and stretch my legs a bit and I walked around to different spots on the property. By the later morning it had started to warm up nicely but I still didn't hear any birds. I spooked two deer that were crossing the big field. I saw a bear track on the road near the new pit and had a pheasant that came to visit me in the blind. I actually heard him calling all day.
I made it back to the club on Thursday. It was chilly again in the morning, but didn't seem to warm up quite as much as it did on Monday. Again, I sat in the blind until about 8 and then went to other spots before returning to the blind. Again I saw nothing, heard nothing.
Friday...more of the same. I am going to eat tag soup this year. not sure if it was the weather or the fact that the property was turned into a moon scape.
