boy no kidding. This is the first year that I have duck hunted in Nor Cal. Man I had a blast! Even managed to connect on a few quakers!

Even though this past season was pretty bad overall, there were some days where the hunting was great. Hopefully we get some better weather up north this fall. I was not amused that I was coming back from the blind with a sunburn for most of the season.

Yep, two years ago we had a bunch of ducklings in the pool. last year we had a nest that the hen abandoned after about 2 weeks. I walk the yard to look for the nests now to make sure that if there are eggs the hen is not disturbed.

There are a bunch of ponds where I am at and they are loaded with ducks. Bunch of honkers with lots of goslings as well. Come on October!
