Bird Hunting Pictures

I’m headed out the door shortly to sit for Canada Geese. There is a huge feed just north of me. Hopefully we have better action than a week ago.

Hit ‘em hard!
 
R eight that’s cool to see something so different than our own “norms”-congrats!
 
Hevi Shot number 2

I was impressed with the 3” no 2 steel. The photo is of some of the shells I tried.

Only about an hour hunting and four shots. Cutting across the hayfield back to the vehicle when I decided to take a photo. The grass in this field is greener and thicker than my lawn. Drought is over. Very warm again today.
 
Would that be a snow mallard? Storm mallard? I’ve mounted a couple park duck hybrids, they make a fun and unique trophy-cool that you collected one
It is actually a snowy call duck, a domestic descendant of mallards. This was most likely an escaped domestic bird as it didnt behave like a wild duck. So not really rare because they are domesticated but rare to shoot on a hunt.

Long day in the field. Lots of birds but didn't find them till the end. Then they were everywhere. Both dogs are gimpy but they had a helluva time. I gotta find a new recipe. Eating birds as fast as I can. Actually saw quite a few deer today ... finally. Beginning to get worried. Perhaps hunting them next week. Hopefully.

Dad would have been 100 today. I should have used his A5. I brought it along for backup. He loved pheasant hunting and good dogs. Here's to ya, Dad. Thanks for getting me started in the right direction.

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)
