Ruddy, I shot 2 hens last year. The drakes are pretty nice looking...

you can't tell the drakes from hens until about February.

I actually researched them last year after i shot them. I discovered that "back in the day" people ate them all the time and they were preferred to lots of other ducks. Also, that pintail were considered trash as far as tablefare.

They referred to the ruddy ducks as the butterball of ducks...
