Waiting on my GWT and Sprig....... started about 3 weeks ago
I'd ask him if he's pregnant. He missed a s__tload of periods. I'll take "things that look like a uterus" for $200 Alex.

Where did you find a full plumed blue? It isn't impossible but you just don't see the masked bandits until late late in the season.

Where did you find a full plumed blue? It isn't impossible but you just don't see the masked bandits until late late in the season. Both last year and this have produced some nicely feathered Blue Wings coming through North Texas. They seem to be found mainly on small private water with a total of 6 pics sent of very nice drakes. I also received a pic of one killed in December in a wooded marsh in South East Texas...and 2 others that an outfitter killed in Seadrift. I've had calls on a total of 5 Cinnamon's from the coast this year as well. You can usually kill nice drake blue wings between Houston and Rockport at the end of the season. You just never know where you might run into one.
Overheard at my last convention: "If you wanna make a million bucks in taxidermy, start out with 2 million and in 5 years, if you're lucky, you'll have a million left."

Josh, thanks for letting me mount those for you....enjoyed it. Here is a little different angle...
