early goose

We had a slow early season, but the only bird i shot made up for the lack of action by having some jewelry attached to its leg...

My first banded bird

Bit of a cheap shot eh? That was Fridays hunt from an average guy who gets out for some fun with no pretense of being some kind of a wanna be pro.

Sorry bud but your far from average.................

I think he just wanted to play with the air rifle, cause he sure shot up my .22 spinner targets.:goodstuff: How many tins of pellets did you go thru Vince? It must have been a couple, cause my poor .22 spinners where really shot up.:mad::silly: Well after lunch with things still quiet, Mateo and soup headed back to TO. Yoki, Chenzo and I picked up and packed up the decoys and gear in about 30 to 40 minutes. We set out on a tour of Hullett to show the guys around and get us all a users guide...Ok I was checking the wild apple crop too.;) For anyone thinking of deer hunting in Zone B...the deer seem to be keeping the fallen apples cleaned up. Well driving around to Zone A I spotted a large Flock of Birds and since they guys were agreeable we stopped in the the farm house where they landed. After a nice chat with the owner and his wife, the three of us spent a couple hours trying to shoot some birds. I got a nice all white bird right off the bat, and then drop one that we could not recover because it was on a beam high on the wall. The cats will like that. Paul had a go at it and then Vince got one. All in all things turned out good. Got told to come back and hunt the place anytime.

Summery of the day:

Got to hunt with four great guys
took a short nap
got some practice in with the air rifle
had a nice lunch
can back to find my spinner target shot up real bad:scream:
checked out the wild apple crop
Got a new permission for hunting
Group shot three birds
showed Vince how to breast out birds( Paul got video he says)
Drove home in the sunshine.

Thanks Snowwalker. It was an awesome day out despite the rain. It was a great experience sitting there waiting for birds to come in. Even though they didn't show up it was still great.
