Hunting In North Dakota United States

Duck hunting at dawn hunkered down for camouflage on a hilltop south-east of Minot, North Dakota, United States. The duck hunters travel in the dark to the place they suspect will be the morning feeding roost for ducks. As the sun comes up they have prepared decoys in the field and hide behind some undergrowth in their camouflage clothing. As the sun rises soem ducks take to the air for their morning feed. As they draw near the hunters make female and feeding duck calls to attract the flying birds towards the decoys and to within shooting range. The moment they are close enough the hunters quickly take aim anf fire their shotguns; some of the ducks fall to the ground. A great deal of work and effort goes into this type of shooting, with the result being a few fine Mallards for the pot.
