Spoonbill Slap-O-Rama

Okay, so things really haven't changed much. Thankfully, the full-moon issue has been resolved by several days of super-cloudy nights. As per what seems to be the norm this season, we got another 1/2 inch of rain last night. Spoonbills are thick. Mallards aren't to be found.

Back to the Homer. Cousin Andy, Grant, Tom, Fred, Fleabag, J-Hawk, Yours Truly, and of course, ole Cannon. Took us 3 hours, but we finally reduced full bag limits to possession. 42 birds.

42 Ducks
40 Shovelers
02 Mallards
