Was looking through pics from this year and thought if share a few. Started off with planting the duck chow in the heat of the summer. Cool August days make for good times slogging through the mud... Made a couple great dove hunts with the family. Teal was slower than normal, we just never saw big numbers. Got some kiddos out for their first birds. It's nice to have a crew of young blind builders now.

Duck season was solid. Lot less birds around than years past but we still charged em rent as often as we could. Uncle Patricio-what's the number one rule? Enjoyed some great hunts with friends And family.

Spent the last day of the season with my dad and my boys. A big rain washed a ton of coastal grass debris into a 1/4 acre pond on our place. In 35 years if hunting, I've never seen anything like it. We literally decoyed 1000s of birds between 3-5 in the afternoon. This was a top 3 hunt ever for me. Like the last 4 years, I've wrapped up in Mexico to get the killing out of my system. Heck of a sunset to end a heck of a year.

Added a few more of these to the collection. Lesser scaup 2 Ross Several brant-single and double banded. Oldest was banded 20 years ago as an adult. Youngest got his first. But my favorite pics of the year- The first week of the season we were overrun with Coots that were absolutely destroying our habitat. I told my boys that Thursday afternoon we were going on a coot whackin. My 7 yo was is excited that he wrote it down so he wouldn't forget. And the results... Next adventure-taking the boys on a 4 day banding trip to Ontario. Helping a friend band 2000+ mallards and Canada geese during the moult.

I really enjoy your posts and love seeing the kids enjoying it so much. My son leaves for college next year and I will miss not getting to share the sunrises with him as much as we have the past 10 plus years. Plus, he's gotten good at helping get everything set up.
