A Ducky Day!
I think my dog Daisy must have flushed out these two friendly duck hunters from their blind in the phragmites when she got curious with their geese decoys. (See yesterday's post.) The hunters didn't "bag" any ducks this day but enjoyed the beauty of Blacks Creek and the unseasonably warm weather. During this encounter, I was treated to a sampling of the different duck whistles.
