"Moonlight Melanistic"

By: Foster Bartholow (Rapid City, SD)

This once in a lifetime melanistic bird was photographed the morning of our hunt with the moonlight and clouds behind his back. Following this hunt, we had a tremendous heart stopping experience with this bird coming into the decoys at 13 yards.
