Few tables remain, walk ins looking to sell, trade or get something appraised are encouraged. We will also have a Lake Koshkonong decoy display with people share a lot of the new research we have uncovered in last few years.

Huns are very hard to raise, that being said there are areas that have wild bobwhite due to training and releasing of pen raised birds, so its possible I suppose. But to affect the population probably not, there are a lot of factors that are causing the down turn in huns out here. Best bet is...
