    Me and my young fella sat on my pond below my house. A lot of ducks flying around 5:00PM but not one duck even look like it was interested. Bit of water sitting around the river flats and a lot more ducks along the river then opening i thought we were in with a chance.

    @Dundee it's got but of a story with that one someone shot it next to the house ( house by river) and the lab ran off and retrived the bird and by the time I got there the lab was bringing it back to me and the guy drove off in his tinny before I could give it back. So I am yet to shoot a banded bird.

    Weather is supposed to be horrific tomorrow but we are going to shoot a pond on the farm that has been loaded since opening day.
    Should be good with a bit of wind.

    Seen two ducks on a puddle beside the creek between our house and the cops house.Both my young fellas had seen them sitting there today also. A horse was in the same paddock as the puddle.My plan of attack worked out fine when I noticed the cops had gone to work.
    I drove down the road on the quad and the ducks flew off between the coppers house and mine.Anyway took one shot and nailed the high mallard drake as he flew over my house only got one shot off so his girl flew free.

    Took the young fellas out for a quick evening shoot and got a swan. They were pretty happy.
