Mallard Comin-In
« on: December 01, 2010, 12:56:49 PM »
Hello all, sorry for not posting pic's lately, it's been busy around my neck of the wooods.  I'm finally coming up for air from mounting and thought I would share some pic's in the next few weeks.  Here is a Mallard that will be going out the door Monday.  Enjoy the pic's and talk with you soon.  John

 :yike: That think looks like it was dropping in some decoys alive! Great color! Never seen a duck keep is bright color comming out of the taxi. I had a green wing teal done, and it sure did'ent keep its color like that! Great job!
I felt like a one legged cat trying to bury a terd on a frozen pond!

Thanks guy's for the compliments.  I tried to portray in the photo the radical attitude I actually mounted him in to show him really coming in, but the pic's don't show it all.  Maybe some day I will be able to take pictures like Bone does. :'(  John
