Man that is a beautiful spoonie. I'm assuming those pics are from last season, otherwise your birds have some amazing plumage for this early in the season! Great pics as always
Gotta live up to the nickname...

Hey tray Do you set up a spread in the off season and call them in for pictures ? you Yes a lot of time I will try to set up a decoy spread, it’s a little harder then hunting because you need to have the sun behind you for the best pictures of birds coming in but a lot of the time the wind will blow out of a direction that doesn’t for allow for that.

Hey Tray Do you find there's much a difference between setting up a decoy spread in hunting season vs the spring ? Let's say for mallards? I don’t do anything special, we have a large number of waterfowl come thru on migration so I just find where they want to be and set up. Big thing is when your not banging away at them once a few birds start landing your decoy spread keeps getting bigger which draws more birds. A good hide is even more critical with a camera then shotgun.

Those are amazing pics. Are you a professional photographer? No, it’s just a hobby.
