That's some wild stuff! Here's a couple that happened to me;


I was wading a river hoping to jump some ducks when 3 wood ducks flushed from an eddy. I fired and missed. I just stood there hanging my head for about 20 seconds when one of them came flying back. I could not believe my good fortune. Then I seen there was a hawk chasing it. The hawk tried to grab it in mid-air but come up short with a few tailfeathers flying. At this the wood duck veered into the trees along the bank losing the hawk who didn't seem to want to follow. I shot the wood duck in the tree's and it fell. Now the hawk must have thought he somehow got it because he landed in a tree and seemed to be looking for a way to retrieve it. I couldn't believe the shot didn't bother him. It wasn't until I started to climb up the bank that he flew away.


Once while duck hunting a small river a huge buck (and I mean huge) was tagging a doe when his course took him right in the middle of my decoy spread. When the ducks failed to move out of his way I could actually see his eyebrow curl as he seem puzzled. He then looked up to see my buddy and I with our jaws down around our chest not 15yds away on the bank. His next emotion was one of fear but since we wasn't moving he kind of just slinked off making like we didn't even see him LOL. My buddy went back (his spot) and hunted for him but never seen him again.
