These excursions, or \u201cweekend<br \/>\nvacations\u201d as I called them, were the highlight of my early childhood. A few times a year, my dad<br \/>\nwould check me out of school early on a Friday. We would drive down to the Fellsmere<br \/>\nReservoir, 4,189 acres of protected land, which allowed for hunters to congregate and hunt small<br \/>\nvolumes of state-sanctioned wildlife.<\/p>\n<p>We camped out, sleeping in his truck and huddled under blankets from the sharp cold or sticky<br \/>\nheat, sometimes running the battery for a few minutes during the night to alleviate the brunt of<br \/>\nour weather-inflicted woes. Then, at 3:30 am, our alarms went off and we shambled out, groggy<br \/>\nbut excited, to go claim our spots.<\/p>\n<p>There was a gathering of all of the hunters attending that weekend, and spots were drawn at<br \/>\nrandom. Then, we would all load onto a rickety old trailer, towed by a pickup truck, as they drove<br \/>\nus all around to our individual plots of swamp. The smell of oil-based face paint and the sound<br \/>\nof plastic decoys rattling together always soothed me on this trip, even as the bumpy road<br \/>\nthreatened to buck me off the trailer and into the Florida wilderness.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cah.ucf.edu\/imprint\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/01\/Picture-4.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6411 alignleft lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cah.ucf.edu\/imprint\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/01\/Picture-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"240\" height=\"319\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cah.ucf.edu\/imprint\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/01\/Picture-4.jpg 240w, https:\/\/cah.ucf.edu\/imprint\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/01\/Picture-4-226x300.jpg 226w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6411 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/cah.ucf.edu\/imprint\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/01\/Picture-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"240\" height=\"319\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cah.ucf.edu\/imprint\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/01\/Picture-4.jpg 240w, https:\/\/cah.ucf.edu\/imprint\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/01\/Picture-4-226x300.jpg 226w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Eventually, it would come time to depart and my father, towering above me, would lead the way<br \/>\nthrough the reservoir waters. We hunted in waders, special garments that keep you warm and dry during the hours spent in the swamp. Waders end at your chest, and if you allow them to fill up with water, they will often drag you under. When my dad first told me of this possibility, I looked down into the still water as we shuffled along, wondering if anyone would ever find me if I vanished beneath the murky depths. I imagined the crunch crunch crunch of sticks and leaves under my feet were bones, from wildlife or humans or something else entirely. I had a very active imagination at this age.<\/p>\n<p>Being so immersed in nature, you learn to trust your senses. There are many dangers in Florida<br \/>\n&#8211; alligators, of course, but also aggressive wild hogs, and otters that would steal a shot duck<br \/>\nbefore a hunter could make their way to retrieve it. Because of this, staying alert is crucial.<br \/>\nWhen you\u2019re carrying a 20-pound backpack, and it\u2019s so dark you can barely see your own hands<br \/>\nin front of your face, you learn to rely on sound. Eventually, you feel so in tune with the wild you<br \/>\nbecome a part of it, swaying and breathing together. Once the sun comes up and your joints<br \/>\nbegin to warm back up, it is time to trek into the waters and hunt.<\/p>\n<p>When I started going hunting, I was too small to even carry a rifle with me, coming along for the<br \/>\nexperience rather than the main event. Eventually, once I got big enough, my dad let me try. The<br \/>\nweight of the gun, on top of the snacks and supplies I already carried, was almost unbearable. I<br \/>\ncomplained about it all day.<\/p>\n<p>The hunt itself was slow, and often boring. Mostly, it was standing around and waiting for game<br \/>\nto fly overhead, hearing the echoes of far-off gunshots from other hunters. I was growing<br \/>\njealous, and exhausted, when our chance game. A flock of Mottled ducks swooped overhead.<br \/>\nMy dad pointed them out, and I shot.<\/p>\n<p>I had barely any practice shooting at this point, beyond target practice with cans in my<br \/>\ngrandparents\u2019 Georgia backyard. My movements were some combination of instinct and luck &#8211; I<br \/>\ndidn\u2019t even know my shot had connected until I heard my dad whooping in celebration, moving<br \/>\nto collect our bounty before the duck even hit the ground.<\/p>\n<p>When we finally made it there, and collected the duck, the reality of what I had done set in. I felt<br \/>\nguilty to have cut the life of this creature short, but also proud to have succeeded. I held the<br \/>\ncreature in my hands, looked into its eyes, and told it thank you for its sacrifice. When I looked<br \/>\nup, my dad was already moving, back into our patch of brush where we could hide and take<br \/>\nmore shots.<\/p>\n<p>Once the sun was reasonably in the sky, and the rest of the world was waking up, the hunt was<br \/>\nover. We made our way back, my bag and my heart weighing a little heavier. When we brought<br \/>\nthe duck home, my dad brought me to the backyard. There, he showed me how to harvest the<br \/>\nfeathers, which would become the duck feather pillows I slept on.\u00a0 I watched the knife<br \/>\nslide under the skin, separating bones, organs, flesh. I watched as my dad collected the edible<br \/>\nparts of the bird, to make into jalapeno duck poppers and stew.<\/p>\n<p>I never went hunting again after that trip. The act of pulling the trigger had been too much for<br \/>\nme, and I felt tremendous guilt. Looking back now, though, I think of my dad &#8211; how he grew up in<br \/>\nGeorgia, hunting squirrels and deer in his parents\u2019 backyard in Georgia. How he learned to use<br \/>\neach part of the animal, refusing to let anything go to waste. To us, wasting the animal would<br \/>\ndefeat the entire point of going.<\/p>\n<p>I felt a connection to Florida in my time in the wilderness &#8211; I moved with it, breathed with it,<br \/>\nbecame a part of it &#8211; if only for a moment. I understood its duality. Florida has this natural,<br \/>\nuntamable, frightening beauty, so often overshadowed by the beaches and the tourists and the<br \/>\nconcrete.<\/p>\n<p>My time hunting was memorable, of course, but it also allowed me to feel the pull of wild Florida,<br \/>\nthe deep swampy wet and the vast, flat expanses. The wildlife, equal parts beautiful and<br \/>\nfrightening. I think the powerful, off-putting qualities of Florida, the work that must be done to<br \/>\nexperience it, only make its call stronger.<\/p>\n<p>I think this terrifying beauty can be found all across Florida, not just in Fellsmere. It won\u2019t be<br \/>\nhunting for everybody &#8211; maybe it\u2019s a trail, a beach, a cave, or a spring. Maybe it\u2019s Orlando or<br \/>\nMiami or Jacksonville or Tampa. I can\u2019t say where you will find it. I just know that it\u2019s out there,<br \/>\nand once you find it, once you breathe it in, it will be a part of you forever.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by McKenna Slaughter As the daughter of an outdoorsman, I was raised duck hunting.
