Banded ducks = 0, Banded snow goose = 1
Back in highschool we had access to a friend of ours place that had some corn fields. We had a few big rains and some parts of the fields were flooded, so we decided to skip out on hunting my place and head to theirs for a change of scenery. I think that was quite possibly the BEST hunt of my life. Four limits of ducks (only time I have ever shot a full limit of greenheads), and four limits of snow geese. First goose I dropped was banded. Never will forget it. I wish I would have had enough sense to take pictures of that hunt back then, but the memory is more than vivid still.

7 mallards 2 woodies 7 canadas. The ducks were all shot in the same season in California, on the same hunt club where i did a banding project the previous summer. I banded three of the mallards i shot.  The rest were banded in previous years in the same general area, so I really don't consider them "trophies" but they still look good on the lanyard. Especially the 2 $100 reward bands  The geese were shot over 3 years in Michigan. Most of them came from the Hudson bay.

I could not believe what I was seeing. I shot the very next number. Consecutive band numbers in Consectutive years at lakes 100 miles apart. I dont even want to try and figure the odds on that. They are the Third and Fourth bands from the top Right.

Are you supposed to keep those things? I always just throw them away with the duck.
You guys actually keep the little leg bands?
I've probably thrown a dozen away.
