I can't stop looking at those pictures! Are the bushes with such beautiful
fall color on them the berry bushes? Cloudberry and lingon? Gosh.

I've got a question though that just struck me. I'm not a hunter, so bear
with me, and I'm not trying to start an argument. Just a question from
someone with no experience in that sport:

What do you do with that many birds? I mean, did you take them all home
with you to eat, or do you leave them there for the scavenger animals?

I guess that's the thing about hunting that doesn't appeal to me- kind of
tough to do catch and release!

Thanks again for such a great illustrated report!
