SATURDAYS RABBIT #3

Rick came over around 10 for a morning hunt.The neighbors, the Webers,stopped over and they joined in. Bill Wright and his new puppy, Charlie, stopped in. We hunted the woods edge behind the cabin. Keavy went to the same tree that we had jumped 2 rabbits under last week. So we started there. Keavy was not in any hurry to move from that spot. She finally did move on and we had a good hour and half hunt. We only jumped one rabbit and Keavy missed it. Keavy got some good flying in. After lunch we headed over to dads. I met with Bill and Scott. There is a spot in the corner of the woods where there are always rabbits.Bill jumped one right away and it ran across the open field. Keavy gave us a good show chasing it across the field. She made her dive just as the rabbit turned the corner out of our sight. When we went over to check it out I found Keavy on the ground with a disappointed look on her face and lots of fur on the ground but no bunny.Back in a tree Keavy went and we started working away down the edge. Keavy was staying with us and the dogs were hunting good. I jumped the next rabbit and it went for a brush pile. Janey got in the pile and Keavy moved up to a high oak. I saw Keavy make her dive and #3 rabbit was in the bag. I really didn't think that rabbit was going to leave that brush pile. I got the camera out for some pictures only to find I didn't put a card in it. Got some pictures later that evening. PC030028Tired ground crew.
