Checked off a number of birds this weekend.
Saturday got my limit of harlies and then a few Barrow’s goldeneye and buffleheads. Had a bad wind that kept the birds down.
Today was a different story. Miserable weather but we put a beat down on them. Killed a pile of barrow’s, a common and a red breasted merganser drakes, two harlies, bufflehead, and my first surf scoter. Taxi bill just went up.
Sea duck hunting is definitely something completely different but a lot of fun. Tough birds and tough to shoot, took quite a bit of adjustment to get the hang of it being used to killing puddlers.

Had a good NTX hunt Sunday morning. 60 geese roosted on the tank that never came back after we scared them off, and most the ducks showed up before shooting light but we had a blast. Can't complain about early season mallards and my buddies 7 year old son shot his first duck, a gadwall drake. Can't beat being there for experiences like that! Ended up with 4 species Mallard, Gadwall, Ringneck, and Red Head.

Cool hunts for both of you. Diamond, I don't often think of Alaska as a duck destination but if I ever get up there I'm going to give it a try. One of these days I'm going to do the grand tour and starting in Alaska would be a blast.
Poppin, seeing someone be successful on their duck hunt is always a joy.
