Wonder what my taxidermy bill will be, but even in sw Louisiana Cinnamon teal are rare and for the three of us to get nice adult drakes in the 3 species of teal the same day is unique.
That is definitely awesome. The chances of each of you shooting a drake teal of a different species is pretty slim. Heck, it is tough enough just to hit a teal to begin with.

Taxidermy bill, $400+. Experience of a lifetime, priceless. I hope my dad gets to experience something like that and that I get to experience it at some point too.
