Product Description
Wildfowling is the hunting of wild fowl in wild places. As a hunting sport it is unique in that success depends more upon the waterfowler's knowledge of the habits and habitat of the ducks and geese than on his shooting skills. This anthology of articles by Eric Begbie is drawn from a wide range of hunting and wildlife publications and covers the entire spectrum of the waterfowling world.
From the Author
Wildfowling is the pursuit of wild fowl in wild places. As a shooting sport it is unique in that success depends more upon the wildfowler's knowledge of the habits and habitat of his quarry than upon his marksmanship skills. It is, however, more than just a sport. For those of us who have responded to the call of a wild estuary, fowling can become a way of life, a consuming passion which leads us relentlessly to seek a better understanding of the birds which inhabit the land and water beyond the tideline.
