I have owned this land for 5 years am having distress with payment, if there were accord $ available I would develop it for Handicapped Vets for deer, Turkey. I could place 6 hunters daily SAFELY. They could hunt from wheelchairs or even cars or trucks. I am 100% disabled-everlastingly also so I know what a thrill it is to be able to get into the woods again. I have a small cabin there sleeps 3, want to place up a small pole construction/bunkhouse/kitchen for the comfort of guests. I do NOT want to profit from this, I would just like to be able to keep it and share it. I worked for 20 years as a Wildlife Biologist, I used to take kids in wheelchairs out to a duck blind in a boat, or Pheasant hunting, what a WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE! There is a 240 acre field between my land and County road I have never had tresspass problems. On opening day of any season at the Wildlife Area one can sit in my cabin and watch the deer & Turkeys run into my woods to hide so there is always lots of action.

Upland Bird Hunting – Valuable Tips For Bird Hunters
Bird hunting has become a very well loved hunting pastime. While some hunters like the element of hunting over water for birds such as ducks and geese, many more prefer what is know as upland bird hunting. The upland birds are those such as pheasant, grouse, quail, and partridge that live exclusively on land. This can be much simpler for many hunters in a few different ways.
For the hunter who prefers to hunt waterfowl, his largest investment, other than perhaps his dog, is export a boat. While some hunters walk the peripheries of ponds or flooded areas, the best way to bag a trophy is heading to the bird’s territory; the water. While many hunters prefer using a boat and delight in life on the water, many more do not. Especially for the newcomer who isn’t sure what he prefers yet, export a boat right out of the gate can be an expensive investment he may not even use. The upland bird, but, stays exclusively on the land hiding in underbrush and thickets in the forest or prairie. The hunter wants to scare the bird from its hiding place so he can get a shot at it.
Another element of the waterfowl hunt is the dog. When hunting from a boat and downing birds, your trophy will always fall into the water, so using a bird dog is very nearly necessary to retrieve it. But, the upland bird hunter can get away without the use of a dog. A well-trained dog can, but, add a priceless element to any hunt by tracking down the bird for you. The upland bird dog is trained for a fantastic sense of smell and keen eyesight so not only can he see where your bird fell, but will be able to track it if it’s only wounded. Another fantastic asset will be the dog’s ability to flush the bird out of it’s hiding place. He’ll be able to detect any movement and alert the hunter to a bird’s presence.
If keeping dry while hunting sounds like something for you, then upland bird hunting is the perfect choice. Other than a weapon and hunting apparel, a hunter has small investment to make into his sport, and it offers just as much of a challenge as waterfowl. Many of the well loved states for upland hunting are in the northern regions such as South Dakota, and it is also well loved in the United Kingdom.

Need help identifying a bird ( game bird??)?
My son bought me this “bantam chicken” just after Mothers Day. This ‘thing’ is now a childish adult, but ‘it’ isn’t no chicken. It has blue eyes, spotted feathers. It has a small waddle growing out of each side of its face and what I call a ‘horn’ on its head, a bump that is hard. It makes this very loud and very annoying squawk. I thought maybe it was a pheasant, but the tail feathers aren’t right. I would just like to know what this “thing” is and if will it stay around the yard with the ducks and other chickens or is it going to glide away?
