Decided to do a solo hunt for the last day of the first split in the NJ south zone. I did an afternoon hunt and figured the birds would move on the tide change, I was correct in my assumptions!
Had opportunities at large groups of teal, to which I somehow only scratched one drake greenwing, and then black duck after black duck started dropping into the spread. After some abysmal shooting to start I quickly bagged my one black duck and then just had fun watching them the rest of the afternoon. The bird I bagged was definitely a hen mallard/black duck hybrid but I wasn't about to start shooting more and getting myself in trouble.
I got some decent footage with the cameras so I put a little video together. Please excuse my awful shooting, I'll blame it on adjusting to my new M2.
