dma this is a great question and one that you will never fully learn, like was written above sometimes you are hidden so well and a duck will still flare out, like they have a duck sense that tells them you are there. but other times ducks will come into a "honey hole" moments after you shoot or even if your in plain site. what i always try to do it act like i belong. for instance there are 2 diffrent places i hunt that there is absalutly no place to hide just a old fence line were they fly over for some reason. so what i do is basicly hug that fence line. i stand so i am right up against it and try to get my head to be about lvl with the top of the post. those ducks fly right over me like i am the post. there are a couple places we jump geese but there is a large field inbetween the area we sneak up on them. if we walk threw the field normaly the birds spook and fly but if we hunch over one right behind another like a animal (cow, horse, deer or whaterver) most of the times they wont spook and we can get to the area were we can sneak on them. the info about not turning your head is about the best tip you can ever learn keep your head down and hold still. this means your gun to keep it low and still tell your ready to shoot.
camo is something i have never realy gotten into. i know some ppl swear they have gotta have the most expensive ralistic stuff there is. but i use my carhart coat and overalls and thats about it. now i wouldnt say wear huter orange or midnight black but just wear base colours or something close to the surroundings, and try to use something to break your shape up weather it is some grass, a tree, or even a fence post. no one ever believes me on the fence post but it works i promise you.
