Duck's on the Brain...

It's that time of year again...Duck season!


I grew up in West Virginia, where dear hunting is not a hobby but a religion. I too was one that every year went out in search of these four legged car wreckers, but a few years ago I was introduced to DUCK HUNTING!

In these few years that I have been into it, I am finding that I am obsessed with these ducks and one in particular...the Wood Duck! That is the picture you see above. They are absolutely amazing to watch in the wild. In the past week I've been able to watch 4 of them flying back and forth across the banks here on the Ohio River. When I first found out about this spectacular duck, I set my goal to get my first Wood Duck mounted.


So far Beautiful Wife does not have to look at any mounted ducks in the house but someday I will have that winged rainbow on my wall.

I have "ducks on the brain" also. I spend most of my time on wood ducks, making nest boxes, cleaning out old boxes and making calls. I was glad to see your blog and that picture is one of the best I've seen. bays call
