Ruffed Grouse opener

Here's stupe. She hasn't lost her enthusiasm for hunting upland birds. This is uplifting for me.

I was in such a jovial mood after such a successful first outing that I donated a bird to some kin. An email soon advised me that the bird hit the plate adjacent to such things as homegrown white carrots and gorgonzola cheese. It also suggested I keep hunting.

Deal.
