in the early 1950's; Daddy told me Buzz, the dark German Short Hair, had the birds, and Joe, the white one, was honoring Buzz; ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2025/04/full-93089-267645-z.joe_bird_dog.jpg)

Cut with her golden oars the silver stream,

One of the best times I had growing up was quail hunting with my dad. We had three Bird Dogs and watching them hunt for a covey of quail was "Priceless"!  Side Note: It was also nice seeing them trail a covey of running Blue Quail.

Glad to see bobwhites finally returning in numbers. When I was young they were everywhere but the populations all died off for years and years.
The only places I knew of were fenced hunts with raised quail and pheasants.
