A Quick Rebird
It's quarter after eight and a quick re-bird is underway, and we will be running
dogs again in a moment. The wind has died down. The lighting is perfect.
This is a very nice test and the judges have used the levy on the right
bird very effectively.

Flyer - Major went directly to the fall area and found the duck flyer. Nice mark.
Right - He went directly to the fall area, and after a small loop, found the bird as quick as possible. Nice mark.
Series One – Test Update
The conditions are excellent with the sun behind us and a gentle cross wind. The guns are very visible. There is a wide open field between the guns. The dogs have to manage a slope on the backside of the levee on the way to the right bird. The wind has died down considerably.
NO -- WAIT -- it's pouring again and the temperature is dropping.
