    Default hen & nest??
    I believe I bumped a hen off her nest today. Is she likely to return and continue tending it? It's in a prime location and I really like the idea of being near a live decoy

    Yeah she will go back, but if you bump her constantly you will break her up. Just be careful when you are hunting that spot.

    Another problem is that if you make a habit of getting too close to her nest, you'll eventually get a predator following your trail. Stay away from the nest.
