Dog, the Royals are taking a beating by the Cards, no doubt....
Bein' the birdwatcher/duck hunter I am, I used to think shooting a crane as not an option. But over the last couple decades, their numbers have increased. So it's good, but I never expected that crane was such a succulent meal.
Ironically, the only time I ever had crane steak was at the last Fish and Fowl I flew back to from OH for the weekend.
The crane was provided, courteously by you, Dog. I was grateful then as much as I am now for that...
Perhaps we organize a hunt sometime. I'll pony up $ as needed, and keep you whole. I always do...
I could fly down and meet you. PM me if you'd be interested. I'll treat you fair.
