    HOLY BUCKETS OF DUCKS!! Very cool!!!!

    I personally think a good cinnamon teal is one of the prettiest ducks in the US. The red will be tough to top though.

    Great stuff and thanks for sharing!

    One question, how many shells did you shoot?

    For Ducks: I shot 11 boxes and Frank shot 12 boxes
    For Doves: I shot 6 boxes and Frank shot 8 boxes
    For Quail: We shot 2 boxes combined
    As you probably know, lead for everything in Mexico

    Sounds like an awesome trip and everything that a hunter could hope for. It sometimes doesn’t end up that way. Congrats and thanks for sharing it with us.

    I just received all of my mounts back from the Mexican hunting trip – very happy with them all, although he painted the bill incorrectly on 2 of them (I didn’t catch it at the time as I was so excited to get them home), so I need to take those 2 back for a little touch-up! Enjoy! Jeff

    Shot the Greenwing and Cinnamon on the trip. Had the Bluewing from a trip to Arkansas several years ago.

    Moqua, to finally answer your question regarding temperatures – sunny everyday, with lows starting around 50F and warming to 75F by lunch. An absolute pleasure to hunt, including no mosquitoes!
