Waterfowl, let’s see them!

Band results!
Evidently this got a little good karma working my direction; last shot fired on the last day produced a banded bird! Only my fourth in 45 years of duck hunting.View attachment 312998
Band Results! I like this discovery part.
Hatched in 2021 or earlier. N.E. of Wasilla Alaska USA, Matanuska-Susitna Borough.
Fourth migration for this gal. Lucky to have had this encounter with her. I really go out of my way to not shoot hens, this is only the third one this year. poor light conditions and surprise got the best of me.
 
Took the 28ga to MA this year for eider and man what an amazing experience. If you’ve never done it I highly recommend it.

Thank you guys. I’ll try and find some from other hunts. I love taking pics during and after a hunt. My daughter wants to start doing it as well with a nice camera so that would be cool. Any excuse to get her to go with me.
 
Here’s some from NJ, the leustic one is a redhead according to the Biologist I shot on my family ranch in OK. The black duck pintail mount is a combo of OK and NJ.
