I’ve shot a many of them, all commons, in the past. May have seen one or two Barrows shot in my life of hunting in Alabama. Hardest headed suckers out there, you’ve got to shoot them in the white patch on them head or you’ll be chasing cripples all day. I was fishing G last spring and had a big flock of scoters come and land near me. Used to kill a few cinnamon teal on the lake 25 yrs or so ago. Don’t even fool with lake anymore. Such rudeness these days, not worth getting my blood pressure up.


You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the one who'll decide where to go.... (Seuss)
