Been a very long time since I've hunted where they were common, and I don't remember them flying any different than bills. They're a rare site down here, but I've never seen one them fly anything but straight. Pretty little birds, though, like little bumble bees buzzing through. And the one I went out of my way to nab for a taste test a while back was much better than their press.

fly straight as an arrow until they flare singles are fairly easy but a big group can be a real challenge unless you Olly them

Sounds like this is your answer:

jehler wrote:When I was down in lousiana teal were the easiest bird to hit, as I remembered ricks advice he had posted in the honey hole some odd years ago "don't be the first to shoot at the teal" that was good advice


But I still manage to shoot where teal aren't more than any other bird and can't imagine them being easier than, oh, say, a sitting can.
