Hope those boxes work out. They have been around and in ours since end of duck season. First picture was week after season. Second one is this morning. Two drakes waiting on hens to leave boxes.
My son shot this one last year in our camp in coastal Louisiana. Very similar with dark ring. Not the best picture of it! I’ve also seen one or two with white rings around their neck. Always interesting with the drakes, some look drab; then the next one can be absolutely stunning.
Dear Mr. Matherson,
I am interested in your gun. Would you be willing to provide a few pictures? Also, please make sure I understand, it does handle steel shot and can be hunted? Always admired your writing and work. I would feel privileged to own it.
