GWP Retrieves the last Woodcock of the season

Was out today with my shooting buddy. We went out with what I can only describe as a pack of dogs, 3 Springers and the GWP. After an uneventful morning we said we'ld try for a woodcock. Most of the pheasants around here have been shot at this stage, in fact we didn't see one cock pheasant all day long. We tried a glen we hunted at Christmas where we put up about 15 woodcock. We had only just gone in when my mate had a lovely snap shot at a woodcock which his old springer put up, the bird dropped up the side of the Glen in some fairly thick briar's and jungle. We sent the dogs in 2 but they were having no luck finding the bird. Next thing my buddie looks down and her is the woodcock perched up on a branch so I whipped out my Nokia N95 and took a little clip of my GWP retrieving her.

 

Nature is an awful thing sometimes, as soon as the dog scented the shot bird she went on point so I had to encourage her on to retrieve it.
