Kimber is Handling on the Left Bird...


...Kimber had a wide delayed flyer on the back side of the second peninsula, but fortunately got it without too much trouble. Then she went over the hill near and left of the right retired and reappeared a bit deep and around quickly to the bird. On the left retired a series of casts was required to get the bird...and Kimber is headed home as a finalist.   

Here Kimber comes back with the delayed flyer. That water looks inviting!
