Wow. That duck avoided the guns for a lot of years. Pretty cool.

Holy cow. I wonder what the avg life expectancy is for a duck. I bet it's a lot younger than 16 yrs. That's awesome! Any pics of the duck?

It was all
Luck on my part this redhead was is a group of ducks doing a flyby over our decoys and he was in the wrong place. Can't imagine all the cool stuff he got to see over the years. Only regret is I did not have him mounted because I had to send in the band to have it acid etched. Had I know he was this old I would have honored him on my wall.
