Trophy birds from the east

[Fred H]

Probably the last hunt of the season on the water for us, the birds are getting scarce and the water will freeze soon. We got a few perfect birds to end a beautiful season. Good luck to those of you lucky enough to keep hunting, be safe on the water!

The Far East haha how far? St lawerence? All the way the the ocean? Nice ducks for sure, I'm gonna look for some of the cool divers this year they have some great colours. See any long tailed ducks (old squaw)? They are cool as well male scoters have some good colours. Love ducks

[Fred H]

St-Lawrence. We have a few oldsquaws but they prefer the other side of the river (60km across). On a good day in BC you can get the three scotters, oldsquaws, harlies and goldeneyes but you won't get any eiders 8)
