thought that we'd be really getting after the geese this year. Had our pit in the middle of the corn but the weather in SW idaho sucked. Had about 3 months of sunny clear and warm days did manage a few birds enjoy Birds decoying My son retrieving a bird My buddies lab working Had the canon 40d in hand instead of the o/u but still made the shot on this guy Snow geese are fairly uncommon in Idaho. I caught these guys for a photo op. My hunting buddies are extremely patient when I ask them to let the birds make one more pass so I can get a good pic. Of course they didn't and we missed out on the shot these pics are cropped from probably 75 yards of course one had a neck band our season is over cheers till next season | ||

weather sucked here too Sid. Rain and warm temps. Yesterday we closed duck with goose and duck limits so one day out of 60, and we supposedly had the most ducks down the flyway since the count began in '55. Couldn't prove it here. Great pics, thanks for posting.

Looks like a leg band on the lower left goose, first photo, but it may be just the way the light is... Excellent photos. That rooster pheasant pic is gorgeous! | |||

Sidnye- Where do you hunt in SW Idaho? I used to hunt up that way out of Caldwell just below the Lake Lowell Damn ( Deer Flat NWR ). | |||

That's the place, near the old Decoy Drive Inn Did you use to hunt with Doc?? | |||

Unfortunately, the long seasons and large bag limits have greatly reduced the local goose populations in SW Idaho. Deer Flat nesting surveys show that decisively. 465H&H | |||

"Unfortunately, the long seasons and large bag limits have greatly reduced the local goose populations in SW Idaho. Deer Flat nesting surveys show that decisively." No it's all those pesky wolves. I hear they like to eat geese on fridays. | |||

The Decoy had great Hamburgers! We hunted on property owned by the Hoadley family for geese Gordy Crockett had the pit and we hunted on the lake for Ducks. Man there where a bunch of ducks in those days. I hunted with Gordy and Don Vaughn and Mike Isom, I'd sure like to see those guys again. They where some fine fellows. . | |||
