Tuesday there was actually some mallards on the water when i got there, back in a hole. not long after pretty good daylight the group of 8-10 mallards that had been hovering for a while came right down the length of the beaver pond and cupped into the area the others were in. it was a BEAUTIFUL sight. guys, being the ones lucky enough to have access to the outdoors, we truly need to keep in mind each and every time we're out there how blessed we are.
