Hahahaha, better becareful with that kind of talk there are a ton of Water Fowl Police here that jump all over folks for asking simple questions like that. Seems they forgot that they too were beginners at one time, but now they are "EXPERTS to the Ninth Power".

Nice looking birds, hope all had a wonderful time.

I got a picture of two nice, er... drakes.. right up in your area 2 weeks ago. I thought about going back for them after the opener but decided I didn't want to fight the circus.

Good shoot.  I know that it can be difficult decoying ducks when you have guys walking around in hunter orange.   :chuckle:

They are almost all released birds on this side.  They shoot by the limit not the sex on the pheasant.
