nice nice nice

Got busted setting up by four canadas coming in at 435.  Got a fly by around 530 on a single drake mallard.  Had 6 Geese deeks up north and 8 ducks just behind them and to the east.  Then I looked up at 615pm and saw two mating pair mallards locked up and right over me.  Dropped one pair and left the other to make some more pairs next spring.  Pulled up shop at shooting time and found 21 canadas jumping the fence from the north and another set of canadas low from the west- both wanted to get in real bad.  After 2 afternoon hunts I would guess that 20 min before shooting time is the best time for ducks.  I think it is safe to say that there are some new birds in town!  JR
