Duck Hunting!

Aaaaahhhhh yes, it's that time of year again. Cold breeze, sunrise, water, nature, my shotgun, and ducks. Can't beat that. Ok, so it's not the typical duck hunt....I have about a 2 minute (OK, 1 minute) walk from the house to get in my blind which is on the pond in the back of the house (you can see the pond behind me in one of the pictures).....ok, ok, and the ducks aren't afraid of people either. It's not my fault they don't get scared even when I yell to get them to fly. The fun part was that I hunted some ducks that you don't see in Missouri; redheads, buffleheads, and hooded mergansers to name a few. The redheads were by far the prettiest and largest. I ended up with 6 the first morning in a record 30 minutes time. It was a 'blast'. A couple days later I got 3 more. I fried up several and Tami's mother, Rita, baked a couple this past weekend. Yum, yum!

I'm cleaning a redhead.
