On today's annual Montgomery Bird Club Presidents Walk at Sycamore Landing Road in Montgomery County, we met some folks training hunting dogs.  They were using Chukars and Himalayan something (name escapes me) to train the dogs.  Later in the morning as we drove back down Sycamore Landing Road the dog folks were gone, but we saw one of the Chukars on the Road.  So don't be surprised to see something exotic if you are birding this area.
