Scouting the hunting area

The wood pigeon and duck hunting seasons have started, but I'm not that interested in them. But on the 20th day of August, it was again legal to let dogs run free at hunting areas, so me and Ruska went for a little scouting trip. We were also testing the new Garmin Astro dog-tracker.

Here's some photos of the trip.

 

 

The "grouse-swamp"

The leftovers of northern goshawk's dinner.

Lot's of blueberries for grouses to eat. Too bad the summer has been so cold and rainy, so the young grouses might have had hard time surviving to this point.

Lots of moose tracks all around the place.

Lunch time!
