A little birdwork at 6am

As the days get hotter, we have to beat the sun. Early in the morning we take a few puppies out for some bird work. This morning there was only time for about 4 puppies before it started getting hot. Also the mountain mint (a wild growing perenial found in meadows here) is blooming and VERY strong smelling now. When I can smell it all around I know those puppies noses are probably getting that smell like the equivilent of being shouted at. Makes for a difficult time scenting much else. This evening we will change locations and make another run.
