Ducks...... - Page 3

Last week I was mowing a field North of my house when I happened to see something brown moving North on the side of the road that parallels the field. I drove the tractor and mower closer to the road to see what it was. Turned out to be a hen mallard leading about 10 babies to an area where they could all walk into Chittenango creek. Very pretty sight.

My wife is from Cazenovia. Upstate New York is way different than from NYC and its boroughs- great lake country indeed, and a waterfowling mecca for the Atlantic flyway too!!

Caz. is 8 miles due South of our 2 farms on State Route 13.

Maybe while "JB" waits for the duck population in Great Bay to come back, he could build himself one of these....

The Ultimate " Man Cave ".
How many beers were consumed building this rascal?
In Louisiana (of course) 3 stories- Duck Blind (on Bayou Self)

1st level hides 4 boats underneath and has room for 2
hunters and has 2 dog doors.

2nd level has a full kitchen with fridge, 2 stoves, electricity for lights, living room with 2 couches and satellite TV, theater seats around the "porch of the blind" to sit 14 guys comfortably. A side porch has a running toilet, a stainless steel grill for cooking whole rib-eyes for lunch and a bar to make all the Mojos and margarita machine which are hard wired to car batteries.

3rd level is the "crows nest" with room for 3. It's about 25' up in the trees and most of the time you are shooting down on the ducks.

The food scraps we throw out draw a lot of ducks and make the fishing good too.

Hi Charlie - The blind pictures and description came from my brother-in-law, Gary Jackson, a DU member from Arkadelphia, Arkansas. As far as I know, there is no copyright but a lot of pride in building the Taj Mahal of blinds....
