AMBUSHED BY DUCKS!

We had just put the spread  of decoys out,
Our guns were loaded and ready!
My son was wearing a sturdy knee brace
To keep his injured knee steady!

The brace rubbed his leg, causing a sore,
It was something he had to address!
The only way to take care of it
Was for him to get halfway undressed!

David had dropped his neoprene
Waders six inches below his knees,
When out of the corner of my eye, ducks
Were coming in pairs and in threes!

He quickly bent over to hide his head--
There were teal and gadwall galore!
Although I've seen some 'odd' things in the past
. . .Never seen a duck 'mooned' before!
