Today in the Woods

Today we saw a hunter who was looking for pheseants. He had a dog with him that was signalling when he found a bird....the hunter then told the dog to go into the brush, the heavy bird would fly up...and the hunter shot. I was behind him about 10 feet. He told me not to move before he released the dog. I screamed when the gun went off...it was so loud. The hunter missed. 
The bullets are really big, like buckshot.
A little while later Kate did the same thing...she flushed a pheseant out of the brush...but no one was there to shoot it. She is an excellent hunter.
These little crocuses are coming out now.

Stephane tells me that this is a popular French song;


Colchiques dans les prés,,,fleurissent .....  fleurrissent....
 Colchiques dans les prés          ,,,,c'est la fin de l'été...

Crocuses bloom in the meadows....flower
Crocuses in the meadows...this is the end of summer.
