Little Benjamin shot a sprucehen today. About 12 feet away, open sights with his BB gun, the chicken was up in a tree. He was so excited when he spotted him. Dad and Benny went to the garage to get/load the gun and dad explained to Ben,

"now we're going to walk with the safety off" and Ben said, "I know dad, I'll keep it in the cross chest position with the muzzle down" <something that his grandpa drills into Ben's head, daily!

Little Ben turned 5 about a week ago and grandpa gave him a CZ bolt action .22

They cleaned the bird and we're going to cook it for dinner tomorrow night

Even better...we cut the feet off and he's going to take them to Pre-K for show and tell on Thursday
