Looking for a special gift? How about a Gadwall smiley face?

We know her and admire her for her blogposts at NorCal Cazadora. But she, Holly Heyser, likes to tell the story of how she was plucking a duck and happened upon smiley faces found in drake Gadwalls’ feathers. Holly, a journalism professor, duck hunter and outdoor enthusiast, keeps her blog fresh and exciting with artwork, photographs, angst and more angst … as she explores what life is like as a hunter trapped in suburbia.
