Nobody needs to kill more than 4 quail per season. If they implemented a reasonable season limit, some of those quail on the big plantations would probably fly to my house and I could get a few too. That would be fair. The rich plantation owners shouldn't be the only people who get to quail hunt.

I'll cover ducks in my next post. I haven't seen a single duck all season, so we obviously need more restrictions on them. Come to think of it, what happened to the big flocks of blackbirds we had when I was a kid? Greedy hunters, no doubt.

Hearing a bob white in the spring is a thing of the past I’m afraid. I remember hearing them all the time as a kid.
