2013-2014 waterfowl success/pictures

Nice! Only seen a couple of blues ever. That one heavly spotted speck is beautiful.

Had about 300ish or so snows and about 50 blues in the mix..........eagle heads on gray bodies really show up in the snow, so I'm editing my statement above. And, as usual, a group of 100 or so cranes are sitting in the milo not far from them, only a 1/2 mile from the house. They always show up about a month after season closes.

I doubt I'll make it out tomorrow, so this was probably my last hunt of the season. 41 big geese that acted like they hadn't been shot at all season. They were really comfortable in the field and came in on a string. Great way to finish the year!

Nice Porter, you still hunting over this way? The number of geese around is incredible, and I don't every remember seeing this many ducks during February, I think I saw more duck yesterday than geese.

Absolutely AWESOME guys! Congratulations on all those successful hunts....

Didn't make it out that direction today. We stayed closer to home after getting access on this field that was holding all the big geese. We may try to get your direction and kill some snow geese before turkey season starts though.

That's a lot of goose jerkey Porter! Like Okie, the mallards and geese are covering the wheat and cut milo fields around here in numbers I've never seen before.

I know it's a late posting but, here is a pair of mallards that were killed during the first part of the season...

Great looking birds D&T!

Thank you Porter! These were the first ducks to be shot with my wife's little 20 ga. and it didn't do too bad....

I killed a lot of ducks with my 20g 870 when I was younger. They do a good job on geese too as long as you get tgem in the kill hole at 25-30 yds.
