I blame this on my current hunting party. We were exceptionally bad shots last year. :)

This is great news for waterfowlers this year.

If you’re ever in Quebec, stop by Lake Brome. Duck Haven, and it’s all over the local menus.

I live at the AFRH-Washington (Old Soldier's Home) and keep an RV down by our fishing ponds (we have more than 300 acres in DC!). We have some resident mallards which come to me for show call. I feed them cracked corn.

They have been visiting daily since they were tiny, and have become quite accustomed to eating from my hand. Mom (the one on right in top pic) keeps watch while her brood gorges. These greedy little critters come up to three times a day... and love their cracked corn.

We also have lots of Canadian geese, but they are just sh*t factories around our golf course! The geese can't fly right now and the ponds are fenced. The ducks "duck" under the gate and come eat. The geese just stand inside looking greener all the time ;>)

I have other "friends" visiting regularly, too! He's fasting on Cheerios...

I have no idea why I find the title of this post hilarious, but I do.

"It let's you know that maybe we're doing something right," he said.

Global warming means more plants and insects, and that means more food for ducks.

Ducks are horrible at obeying traffic laws.

The other day, I was stopped at an intersection waiting for the light to turn green. But when it did, I couldn’t go because a duck and several ducklings promptly stepped out into the street. Silly ducks, don’t they know they’re supposed to cross towards the green light, not the red?

Well I’m no threat to the local duck population, I don’t eat flying liver.

If it walks like 48.6 million ducks, and quacks like 48.6 million ducks, it’s probably 48.6 million ducks.
