Pheasant




On Sunday afternoon the boys and I went hunting. I shot two rabbits and Toby and I together shot a Rooster pheasant. I knocked it down when it flew out of a plum thicket. It landed near Toby and tried to hop off. Toby then finished it off. We are still debating over whose Pheasant it really is. For now we have decided to share it equally. I am still deer hunting but have not seen any deer to shoot.

That's easy, it's Toby's pheasant. When did it stop breathing, when you shot it or when toby shot it? Well then, who killed it? Toby did you only crippled it because you couldn't shoot straight. I sure am glad that Toby can shoot to kill! You should be ashamed of yourself trying to horn in on Toby's kiill.

Man, I sure wish I was called to a place like loomis. You guys have so much fun. I can't wait to visit you again. God bless. Uncle Lee

That is easy. Who killed the pheasant or whose shot made it stop breathing? Toby's shot killed it and it is his pheasant. You only crippled it because you couldn't shoot straight. I am glad that Toby is a straight shooter and knows how to kill a bird. You should be ashamed of yourself trying to horn in to Toby's pheasant.

woops, I didn't know that you had to approve a comment first and wondered why my first comment didn't appear so I sent a second one.

Pauline said...

I tried to post a comment the other day but it said I needed approval? Anyway, I'll try again") Happy Birthday Tom! Are you going hunting or are you going to cook up that pheasant for a special meal?

Neat!!!

Brenda Arce said...

I tried posting the other day and it didn't work, I'll try again.
Tom, I hope you had a great birthday yesterday! How old are you? Calixto turned 38 in Oct, are you the same age or a year younger?
Hope you are enjoying this Christmas season and the hunting season too!

Tom Thompson said...

38 now. Still younger than Calixto

Brenda Arce said...

too funny! I can't believe I married someone the same age as my cousin Tommy!!
When Bruce started dating Roni, we thought she was sooo young...she and Calixto's birthdays are only 3 days apart!
The only problem with marrying a younger man is he always reminds me of it!

Bonnie said...

Cool pheasant!!!! Does it taste like chicken??? Happy birthday Tom!!!! (belated thought it may be) Keep posting what you've hunted, I enjoy seeing your catches of the day! :-)

Roni said...

Yikes! younger than me too. I am starting to feel soooooo old. How about you? Hope you had a great birthday.
Roni

Roni said...

by the way I never miss the chance to remind people they are older than me. Me and Calixto are the babies of our family.
