It worked out though !

Apparently wise beyond his year, catching some shut-eye (others might call it a baby nap) on the way to our spot.

And what we're after (spruce grouse).

.
A hearty snack (that's a chicken meatball in his right paw) at a nice camp spot to keep the energy up. He likes cheerios and string cheese for trail food also.

And a proud dad (me) and my son Connor, 21 months old. Maybe next time I'll get my bow right side up (it's a scramble getting a self pic with a toddler) !

He had a great time, liked poking the grouse. And he must have been practicing scent control as no diaper change was necessary until we got home (phew) !
