One of the babies was clinging to a cattail in about 10 feet of water. Crap......that's gonna be cold. Swam out grabbed it after a short struggle and made my way back to shore to get it back in the house. My wife was with me cheering me on( coaxing me) to save the poor thing. Anyway, she snapped a few pics here is one of the scared and PO'd baby's freaked out. www.huntingadventures.net Are you living your life, or just paying bills until you die?
