Whistling wings always make us remember the words of Havilah Babcock, in “My Health is Better in November”….every bird seems on the move and every day filled with opportunity afield.

Here, waterfowl setups are ready for mallards on the move, near Roberts, Illinois.

Strong winds and chilling temperatures made for great moments and active birds.

Candid shots, courtesy of Curtis Linder of the Field and Stream Group from the Union League Club of Chicago, showcase the anticipation of a great decoy layout and the excellent results of perfect retrieves.
