Wood duck - finally!
« on: January 08, 2015, 06:02:56 PM »
I've always wanted a wood duck and it just never happened, until yesterday. Went out with my brother in the fog, if you could see the ducks they were already in range. We ended up with 4 ringed-necks, 9 green heads and 1 wood duck! The fog lifted just minutes before we finished and the wood duck went straight from the river to the taxidermist. It was a good day.
Disappointments are inevitable, misery is optional.
