Very Cool!!! Thanks for sharing your pics. So how is the duck hunting down under? I imagine any type of hunting is great there.

I heard a story about the roos and walabys being so over populated that the government had to eliminate a few 100,000. Do they let you hunt those or do they leave that up to the gov' t?
