went to traps got nothing again
this morning so went back to
the house. While there I heard
some chickens over north in a
thick pine timber. looked for
chickens but couldnt find them
was tired so set down on some
rock under pine tree to rest
up in top of this pine was a

was looking at nest when I heard
a noise back of me and up the hill
upon turning around I saw no

30 ft away from me, I shot it and
believe that its nest was the one
built of pine needles. this was
also a male
