I never would have found this nest if it warn't for a male standing guard next to the pine tree chasing off everything that dared come close. Then I went down when he was gone and saw the nest shielded by a low hanging branch and tall grass. When a hen is on it she is completely invisible!

Isn't it un real how they can hide so good, it reminds me of when I was a kid and the cows hide their calves, we had a lot of wild plum bushes and that was where they were usually at. Our cow this year had their out in the open ,,but we don't have a lot of coverage, but we got to see 3 of them being born ed do you know how long she has been setting on the eggs, can't wait to see what happens peanut
