    Last duck hunt of the year for me

    Last day of the season down here so even though I was sore from a recent recall out of rugby retirement I headed out anyway. Managed another limit including one mutant looking Mallard which was almost a malanistic example except for some white near its neck suggesting it was just a cross with a domestic duck. Anyway a great finish to a great season.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    should have that first one mounted, its quite a find. Mallards are rare here in Aus, the old man shot a pair of males 20 odd years ago and planned on mounting them. Decided against it and is still kicking himself! Me personally have never seen them (except in NZ)
