Empty Handed No More!

For the last few attempts at pheasants, quail and such, we've been unsuccessful. Today we managed to bag this nice bull goldeneye down by Lake Lowell. I shot at it, but Alan finished it off and made me go get it. Oh well. At least we killed something.

Double Kill!

Max "Head Shot" Shaw lives up to his name this weekend as two quail get smacked down.

Wigeon and Abbey race to grab a wounded teal.

Good girl Abbey! Now leave the damn thing alone. She seems unwilling to let go of the prize.

Max holds up a rare Blue Wing Teal. Only the Second one shot in his lifetime.

Packing it in. "Why does picking up decoys take so much longer than putting them out?"

Total Carnage Count

1 Goose
3 Teal
1 Greenhead
1 Blue Wing Teal
1 Gadwall
2 Mallard


I had fun on this, my first duck hunt. One thing I did learn - I need more gear!
Look out Cabela's here I come.
