We hunted peas the first hunt and the birds didn't really work as well because it's hard to hide in peas. So, he ordered a jacket and bibs in 'Duck Blind' from Cabela's so he'd blend-in better without a ground blind.
So, this morning we hunted a barley field with around 5cm of snow on it........they just flogged us! We each took turns shooting and picking-out greenheads - and keeping track of what we killed and where it fell. BJ brought'em all back to Anne's blind and she distributed them to each shooter.
We actually had to pass-up several groups of pintails and wigeon to hold-out for greenheads.
As result (and after we picked-up) before we put them all in the 'photo' pose, we all checked our birds for bands. Our host hollered when he came across one of his birds that was banded.
We're going after honks and ducks in the morning. Not many folks want to get out in the blowing snow to do this, but he's 'hooked', for sure!
