Hen Mallard
banded 9/17/07
Minnesota,
Looked to be a hatch year bird,
the blind i shot it out of has been hunted by the same group since 98, and have killed 500+ ducks some years, and this was only the 2nd band ever taken off a duck there.
Here is the hole we busted in the ice, its was still fairly thickabout 3/4" to 1"

it sure is nice, when the owner of the company you work for calls and ask if your up for a duck hunt before going into the Office!
LIFE IS GOOD!
