    Default Hey Bog

    These little plants are floating everywhere around the lake. Your plan may be working.

    Delta in a nutshell: Breeding grounds + small wetlands + big blocks of grass cover + predator removal + nesting structures + enough money to do the job= plenty of ducks to keep everyone smiling!

    Prayers are slowly being answered Catdaddy.

    We can sure use the falling lake to help us.
    Be proactive about improving public waterfowl habitat in South Carolina. It's not going to happen by itself, and our help is needed. We have the potential to winter thousands of waterfowl on public grounds if we fight for it.

    We need 1000's of acres of that stuff.

    What's ripping 'em off the bottom? That's a whole plant.
    Listen to your elders. Not because they are always right but because they have more experiences of being wrong.

    Yep.

    A good sign of an expanding population is seeing it wash up on the banks.

    What is the desirable aspect of vallisneria? Do they eat the foliage itself or does it put off seed?

    They literally eat every portion of the plant.

    Divers really like to dig up the roots, while puddlers will break off portions of the leaves/stems and eat them.

    All ducks love the invertebrates and fry that congregate in the thicker stands.
