It's good to hear about your hunts and I think we all agree getting a bird can't be anything but a 5,but some hunts are full of things which could still make your hunt a good one even without a bird. Who your with,where you are at,the close calls that get the heart pumping and the nerves on end etc. I get a thrill seeing other wildlife as well,it makes the hunt a little better even if the desired game is not in the sights.
