Per Johns suggestion, I hunted clappers in the Assateague sloughs, and prepared a fine meal of them.
Johns menu required a couple bottles of Ripple, with a double deuce of T-bird for dessert.
I think they went down better with half a case of muscatel.

Glad to hear there are folks out there chasing the "other" birds.
I'll bet an avocet would make a fine rendition of "city chicken".
Rail hunting stories make me bust.

Soon we'll be stewing gallinules.


Out there doing it best I can.
