Malfunctions: I switched out my duck loads for goose loads when a pair of geese gave me a look and when I switched back to duck loads I didn’t get the bolt fully closed leading me to miss an opportunity at a nice drake mallard.

That looks like a small goose from the picture. I thought I saw a flock of small (migratory) geese the other day. It seems pretty early for them. The geese are all over the place right now, but 2 more weeks before our season opens. Hopefully, the woodies don't move through early like they do some year.

Waterfowl Activity: One Bufflehead and 10-12 mallards seen. We’ve got a terrible lull going on.

Special Items: New MoMarsh blinds!!!
Curses: No birds.
Kudos: Mason who is my house dog as his drive is questionable was a champ today in the marsh sitting in the Taj Mahal MoMarsh... he made a solid retrieve to hand on the buffie.
