    cook corn beef in crock pot,remove and eat,chuck your frozen duck in crock pot in the still hot juice,leave it along over night,add a bit more water enough to mostly cover bird,turn on crock pot in morning before you go to work,by time you get home it will be falling off bone. cranberry sauce goes well with it. lot of meat on a parrie. or cube and coat in beer batter and quick fry.

    dead birds are good decoys.... if you have a few come in at once and wing a bird,DO NOT rush out to finish it off..wait a couple of minutes as often any that got away come back to find thier buddy,if she still squauking you will often get more(be sensible about it and dispatch bird in timely fashion)...Ive seen old man out in open with wounded bird on ground and two female parries still came back to buddy on ground,he got them both too.
    if two of you caught in open,one person freeze and lower down to ground,the other keep walking,often birds will circle fella walking just out of range,now where is 2nd person BOOM BOOM. Same when walking river etc,stay 50 yards apart.

    Two swans and four parries over two days at two different spots. Was hoping for higher numbers, but various factors were against us.
