Storms a comin'

Postby teul2 » Sat Dec 17, 2016 8:07 pm

Storm Wigeon that is.
I was riding and scouting this afternoon when I glass this little beauty. A storm wigeon. Note the white cheeks where the other drake wigeons have grey. It's the unique ducks like this that make me get out of bed and go hunting.
Pic is not the best, as I had my iPhone held up to my binoculars. Once I took the pic, I had to get it as big on my phone as I could, and then screen shot that. But I caught him nonetheless.

Sweet!
Never seen one in the wild (that I recognized anyway).

I like them black ducks in the foreground. Do they eat good?
