Default I spooked a nested hen now what?

Well guys and gals i went out this morning to do some hunting and after not seeing anything for the first 5hrs or hearing anything I descided to try and move. When i was moving I was able to walk up on a bearded hen on the ground aproxamitly 5ft from her. So i figured she was wounded but i could clearly see her beard so I was going to harvest her so just as I take my gun off safty she takes off running and I shoot and hit a tree that was in the path otherwise I know she would be dead. But here is the problem when I looked to see if there was blood were she had been there was 10 eggs so my question is will she come back to the nest or not?
