HUNTING -- Last week’s 2015 Cabela’s Waterfowl Classic Calling Contests attracted contestants from as far away as 1,000 miles to strut their stuff on the Post Falls stage.

No word on whether geese and ducks were flocking to the site, too. But no one would have been surprised. The callers were reportedly very good.

Prizes included gift cards and decoys and calls.
