Sorenson Nov 10, 1974 Fozzy as hell! I had first choice and went to #4 but didn't do much fowsewing (one wigeon!) After lunch we had a good pheasant hunt and I got two cock birds. Have early to go to New Haven on the night airplane. Nov 17, 1979 Had rain yesterday, terminating about sundown. There had been a lot of ducks on the property according to Jed, but by daylight they were all long gone. I had a couple of shots and got one fat hen sprig. Later we went snipe hunting as for the first time this year found a good number of birds on the south end of our pond. I bagged six. Our ladies arrived in late afternoon for a festive holiday banquet. I cooked the turkey. Nov 17, 1979 Betty came with me to #5 blind where we sat all morning watching the shorebirds and enjoying the delicious sunshine. But no ducks. About 8:30 the SW breeze died out and a brisk N breeze began, which brought on a high overhead flights north bound. A few pairs and small flocks came in and Jed got three sprigs in #6. He had no shooting in #5. Lay the blind about 10 AM as I went for snipes. Got seven more, to give a week end bag of 13.
