Duck Blind:
The blind is a camouflaged box which hunters use to hide from approaching waterfowl. A blind may be located along a point of land, on the shoreline, or in exposed waters and may be approached on foot or by boat. The hunter may use calls to lure waterfowl within range of the blind. Late in the season, ducks learn to fear the sound of gunfire and avoid the locations of blinds. Geese are also hunted from pit blinds or field blinds located in or near the fields where they can find food. Duck blinds have been used for over a century, and they remain popular with sport hunters today. |
