I have a few mornories of my ctvirn tucked away for winter refer- ence. To begin with I broke my jinx on pheasants. I often won- d-ered as I ended each season pheusantiess how it would happen when I did score. When I did get my opportunity the setting and circumstances we're altogether dif- ferent from what I had imagined it might be. Hunters Corner 1 The Saturday afternoon fol- lowing the opening of the pheas- P9 ant season (OcLZnd) found me on my way to Peakes. Two Ger- tman Short llaircd Pointers, Sam- bo a veteran of four seasons and Timmy, g pup barely turned ll months, rode with me. Pheasants were not particularly in mind but so I drove through Dromoro I was intrigued hy a stretch of likely stubble flanking an alder swale with a creek flowing through the centre. It was n quiet scene. To my left lay a tr-acant farm the farmhouse standing stark and lmely. its doors un- ihinged and open. Eastwatrd a vast [alder swamp lay mellowed by the‘ ,'slantlng rays of the westering ;sun. It was a. promising spot to let the Pointers have a chance to stretch their legs and an opportunity for Sambo to teach his offspring the fine points of the game of hunt- ing and pointing. I O While Samba ranged in quest. of game Timmy choose to stick close scouting along the fringe of the alder swale. I noticed the pup min-king game in some tall grass and short spruce bushes. He'd crawl on his belly for a few yards and then get on his feet and point and then back to some more belly work. grass hie turned his head and looked up in my face with a pleading look in his brown eyes as much as to say: "Have patience Boss, I've got something here but. can't figure out what it is" I knew it was a pheasant by his actions, Sambo had also learned the hard way. e Finally he got to his feet and sniffed his way deeper into the elders. I figured it was time to get Sambo and walked a few yards to the edge of the stubble and whistled for him. I guess Mr. Pheasant thought this was an op- portune time to make his izet- a-away for behind me I heard h terrific flapping and cnckiing and turned in time to see an immense Cock pheasant climbing straight into the blue and n thoroughly scan-ed puppy tearing back to nie with his stub tall pointed down- ward. The range was extreme but chances for a kill were about even if I held iiimlght. O i O l As I lined up the sights IIIP siiii -sh0ne on the reil, white and green lliead and neck and glinted on thi- {golden brown of his back flllfI iiong streamer tail, At the second rocked boat but continued on albeit making heavy going. Sud- denly he started to climb straight up until he was fully 200 fect in the air and then, like a. stricken boonber otver the target area, he started esrthward in n long slant, with wings set and gaining omentum every moment, till lie crashed deep in the alder swamp... a full 300 yards from where I stood. O '0 o I knew that my prize was dead but. finding him would be ii Job for Sambo and that I couldn't dc- nd on an inexperienced pup. The old Dock had fallen deeper in the swamp then I had thought but Sarnbo found him after some hard hunting. I O He hm fallen on his back on a bed of alder. leaves. this dran background set off his bright markings oi’ red. white, green. brown. gold brown and other mlX- tures too numerous to mention. l-le was a year old bird, full breasted end fat and lived up to all expectations when presented TOT CCIVUII. shot he rolled in the air like a. I'll always any a picture remembrance of my first sight of this beautiful bird lying in a. bed of leaves with two Pointers standing guard, their in- terest fading once tho bird was found but their stub tails moving in unison as they sensed the pIeaSLIIE of their master. The Oock pheasant is n. beautiful but cruel bird. His beak is hooked like an Eagles’ and he can use ‘his beak or his spurred legs to equal ad- vantage in either fighting or dos- troying. After all is said and done half the pleasure in hunting is watching a good dog do his stuff.
