Discouraging hawks?

rainydays, Are the pheasants and grouse catching heck NE of Washburn? That is where I like to hunt in Oct. A winter that starts with wet snow on the vegetation that turns to ice followed by a few blizzards will give you a lot of dead birds. Really hate to see that happen.

I hate to say it, but the birds are really catching hell. Winter has been extremely relentless so far this winter. Well below zero again today and another 8" of snow. So far this winter we've had around 50" of snow and two days with temps. over 32 degrees and we are only just getting into February. I sure hope they get a break soon, but its not looking good for them. Oh, I went to HS in Washburn way back when. Some nice folks there.
