Found a whole bunch of mallards Friday while out quail hunting. So I went back yesterday morning before the sun came up and set out and shot a limit of mallards plus one nice greenwing drake. Done by 9 AM and back home shortly after with birds cleaned and the TV on. Fell asleep shortly after. The lab was happy to get back out and was rearing to go at 430 AM. LOL

Was a nice two days of hunting and loved hearing the quail calling when the sun was just coming up. Pictures to follow if I can get them to load.

This is my lab "Nikki" with her limit of mallards and the one "other" duck which can't be seen I don't think, but is a teal. Yes, that's an accidental hen on the strap. I don't remember the last time I shot a hen. I'm old school and try to not shoot hen mallards even though we know today it really doesn't matter.

Guess I need my eyes checked. I was following the pair circling my blocks and thought I had my eye on the drake but they musta done the ole switcharoo because when they cupped up it was the hen that fell. Last duck of the morning killed too.
 
Sweet! BTW, never met a black lab that I didn't love. Beautiful picture.
