    Default Ended on a high note, again

    Band.jpg

    The last duck killed of my 2019/2020 duck season was a banded, drake wood duck.

    Yesterday, the last duck killed of my 2020/2021 duck season was a banded, drake wood duck.

    Both killed in the exact same location.

    What are the odds?

    awesome! interesting to see that they were both banded in areas so close together, and both from the great lakes region.

    thats not interesting. its expected. the flyway foundation and our very own catdaddy could've guessed the locale. (granted, he would've said linesville, PA)

    good stuff.

    and thanks, zig, for setting that one up for the FF.org
    Ugh. Stupid people piss me off.

    I know of more banded wood ducks killed this year than all the others combined....
    When in doubt, shoot him again!

    Work like it's all up to me, but pray, like it's all up to him!

    That's legit! I think I might have seen one banded wood duck someone killed from around my parts this year.

    I killed one two seasons ago that was banded in Walsingham 2 weeks before yours. Wonder if it was the same corn pile. Pretty neat. Congrats on the bands. Good way to end the season.
