    Well, the season for the duck is coming to an end ...I have learnt alot, am still in awe of how people can sit in a freezing maimai for hours; but when you hear those ducks calling and they are coming in onto your piece of water because you have got the duck call pretty well sorted, you dont seem to feel the cold anymore...

    Went back out on new grass paddock this morning. Ended up with 67 parry's. They sure can fuck up a good paddock.

    I took my 3 year old son duckshooting for the first time this morning. While we were walking the 100m to the pond he stomped in an ice puddle, put his hands in it, threw a tantrum cos his hands were cold and then wet his pants. About 10 mins after we arrived 4 parries flew over and I got 3. Then we went home.

    A short and rather noisy hunting trip, but still very special.

    Both Kawhai the ones that were to badly bruised were used as eel bait and feathers kept for fly tyeing.

    Every year after the season ends they right on ya these two were within range and 6 mallards flew off my top pond this morning.
