Duck opener

Today is sept 1st. For most people, that means labour day. However, for some people in some game management units, it means the start of the general waterfowl season. I didn't need to look at the calendar to remember the day's date - the steady retort of shotguns since a half hour from sunrise was enough. :p

Times like this living next to a waterfowl refuge is less than ideal. In theory, they're supposed to around sundown, but in practise, there's always some person who thinks it'd be a brilliant idea to try and bag a few more birds at 2am. And when I go back in there for whatever reason, I'll need to avoid looking like a goose of any sort. :}
