Great morning- one in the bag

[Al Bundy]

Calm winds and clear skies.   They flew late but fairly well. My decoys need some paint I think as most flaired. A pair of goldeneyes landed a bit out and luckily swam in. I dropped one when it flew away. My hunting buddy missed. Next was an absolutely beautiful sight. A flock of about 6 big black ducks flying quite a ways away. It was nice to see a total black silhouette against the skyline.  I gave a call and turned them. In they came but landed 20 or so yards out of range.  They swam away sadly and then took off. About it for the morning. I did see other birds flying though it’s not wide open. A few around. The sun came up bright and bounced off my gun, didn’t help things as I’m sure the ducks could see it.  Great morning overall.
