Cape Cod Eiders

[George M. Purtill Member #28]

A limit of Drake Eiders from Pleasant Bay Chatham/Harwich area on Cape Cod Massachusetts. It was cold end of the season hunting. VH 12 with 28 inch barrels that I salvaged just to use as a duck gun. I actually used to run steel shot handloads through it.
These were shot with RST Nice shot #2.
I wanted to use my 10 gauge Grade 1 hammer but I can't find any non-tox loads or reload any yet. That's for next year I guess.

Maybe someone an teach me how to rotate my pictures. It was correct when I uploaded it.

George you have to edit and 'rotate' them and 'save' them in their proper position.

Thank you Mark Ouellette for the rotation.
As for Dean-o, my merciless Editor in Chief- THEY ARE PERFECT AND UPRIGHT IN MY COMPUTER!!!!!!!!! [IE, they are saved in the proper position.]
Maybe I should use my left hand when I hit the upload button.

George you are welcome. Any Parker deserves to be appreciated! I also edited your photo above to sharpen it a bit. The photo below is the same with different light, or lack thereof...

Scott, I think a brace hanging in a "game taken" repose would be wonderful.... what do you think George?
