First ducks of the season with the old fella"s"

Been putting the ducks off until a wee bit more seasonal weather and today was perfect.

Planned on doing a wee walk for a few pheasants too but time ran away with walking some wet bits and ponds and finished with an excellent snowy flight on a pond.Both old fellas enjoyed at 80 and 14 respectively although make it real easy for them.DSC00103.JPG

Nice - did you add the woodcock to the bag as well?
No,i don't think it dropped in long ago by the looks.Jumped and flew 20ish metres and then tucked in again so just took a few pics and left.
Perfect weather for working the good bits for them but will leave it until the next snowy spell.
 
Good result that

Braw photo of the woodcock, good result on the ducks also
 
Love that woodcock snap. Been trying for years to find a sitting bird.
Kudos 😎
Managed a few now but this is the best as usually way more harder to make out in heavier cover.
The thermal helps a great deal obviously although didn't need for this one.

Lovely birds for sure.
