Taken on the Thursday after I took my Maine Moose on Tuesday. Took an entire day (Wed.) to get it to the DEC and the processor so we figured we'd have an few days to hunt grouse.

Little did we realize there are no grouse in Maine. Rather, they have an upland game-bird that looks remarkably similar to ruffed grouse except it doesn't fly. They call them "Pahtridge" and must shoot them on the ground. So when in Rome...








Tasty little things, next time will leave the 2" 12ga, Hellis at home and bring the Savage 24 .22/20gauge with me...if I ever draw a second moose tag...
