1947 National Retriever Club Field Trials at Crab Orchard National Wildlife Refuge

Group of six people, standing together in a group, with their backs to the camera; they are looking to the upper left, at the waterfowl in the air in that location. Two of the men (second from the left, and second from the right) are taking aim at the waterfowl with firearms, with the other four observed. They are standing in a field with hip-deep vegetation. A line of trees (devoid of leaves) is in on the horizon in the distance.
