Longer Duck Hunting Jokes:
The Novice Hunter: A novice duck hunter proudly shows his empty bag to his experienced friend after a day in the blind. "I didn't get a single duck," he says, "but I learned a lot!" His friend chuckles and asks, "Oh yeah? What did you learn?" The novice replies, "I learned that ducks are really good at flying away."
The Misunderstanding: Two duck hunters are sitting in a blind. One says, "I think I saw a flock of ducks flying towards us." The second hunter replies, "Are you sure? They seemed awfully close to the ground for ducks." The first hunter replies, "Well, it was a flock of geese." The second hunter sighs, "That explains why they were honking so much."
The Camouflage Mishap: A duck hunter meticulously camouflaged himself, blending perfectly with the reeds. So perfectly, in fact, that when a group of ducks landed nearby, one of them hopped onto his head, mistaking him for a particularly large, oddly shaped rock. The hunter, frozen in place, could only whisper, "I think I've gone too far with this camouflage."
