Another Sept 1 rolls around and time for the annual dove hunt opening day. Same time, same island in the middle of the Snake River. This year was no different than the others. About 9:30am the birds start flying from their morning wheat field pillaging to find a place to roost. That's where we wait. This morning was a little foggy over the river which made it difficult to spot the birds coming. Mind you these are fast little buggers, so if you aren't quick on the draw, they'll sail right past you. This year I scored 4 birds on my own. Again like every year, Todd shot over his limit, so I get his leftovers.
