This Morning:

This afternoon:
Couple locals joined us, one guy brought his daughter and her friend. They had a great time competing with Nala the Lab picking up ducks. The girls didn’t shoot.

Eric and I:

We had a wonderful day overall. Ended with more than a dozen Snows and 5 limits of Ducks.

We’ll try Ducks in the morning instead of snows, due to very little wind…

The Benelli is still shooting good. Had a couple head shots this afternoon:

This one on Video.

Day 3: Limits of Ducks - Mixed Bag. Mallards weren’t cooperating…1 Goose.
Took 2 hours. Lot of low lookers, they just weren’t decoying all the way in. 25 Degrees and no wind. Wheat field.

Brushed in Laydown coffin blinds.

We ended our trip a 1/2 day early due to lack of wind and having limited on Ducks. Snows weren’t likely to cooperate without wind, so we headed to the (Calgary) airport and got a Hotel. Up early and at the airport; only to have a weather delay for our flight back to NorCal! 3 1/2 hour Delay! Good to have lounge access…

Checked in with Ben (Cloud 9) and he reported that his new group got 250 snows this morning! What a difference a day and wind makes…

Regardless we had a great time and shot a lot of ducks and some geese…
