What could be better than a bit of wing shooting on an autumn day with a nice shotgun and good dog!
BTW that is a nice looking shotgun, what is the make and gauge?
Cheers
PS, is your dog an English Springer and how does she retrieve?

Lovely - thanks for the picture that such invokes vivid memories of bird hunting with Lady Jessica.
Well done.

Re: birds with my Springer

Lucy is my third field bred English Springer Spaniel in a row and the granddaughter of my first bird dog. The three of them have been great dogs on all accounts including retrieving. I seemed to have had a bit of a hard time last trip centering the bird and she did a wonderful job running down and bringing to hand the cripples. The shotgun is a well used but unabused H&H royal from the 20's, one of the very first self openers.
