Me and a friend hit howard slough this morning and had a great shoot. I nailed a good drake Canvasback, a drake redhead, 3 goldeneyes, a scaup, and a hen bufflehead. Plenty of swans flying low over the main dike too. I wish people would not shoot them in the feet. I watched a kid shoot 7 different birds in the feet and guts. I told him they ewere flying faster than they looked, but he did not take my advice. He did not knock a bird down and probably doesn't deserve to.
By the way, i forgot that last week at BRBR i shot a widgeon/mallard cross. I went outside to get pics and a cat had taken it. Bothe crosses were the hen and it looked very wierd. I shot a hen widgeon and a hen mallard and it was cool to compare the characteristics of each bird in the cross. I wish i would have got a pic before it got stolen. I have 3 witnesses though.
Here's the pics. Enjoy.[cool]
