    Congrats on the black duck. They're beautiful ducks and each one is a trophy. They're common here in the marshes of Delaware and they still never get old.

      It would be a mottled duck with the white though correct?

    • @kitchencreekoutdoors6298
      @kitchencreekoutdoors6298 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Depending on how far north you go. Generally mottled ducks don't migrate to northern climates they primarily are found along the gulf coast area. If you harvest a black with white baring on the wings it's possible a mallard cross. They are common in our area of the Ohio River.

    Absolutely breathtaking. Thanks for another amazing video. As rare as they are, and they are, there’s tons of blacks up here in the upstate ny and Vermont area of the Atlantic flyway. Absolute hogs too!! Amazing birds.
    Really love how you’ve been capturing your hunts. Intros, b roll, recaps, cooking,…. You do it all and do it well. The TH-cam hunting community owes you a debt for bringing us with you to witness things otherwise never experienced.
    Thank you both!!!

      Originally from Wisconsin but living in Pennsylvania right now and I can attest to black ducks. This summer all I saw were mallards and a few woodies, and then all the mallards seemed to have been replaced with black ducks and now back to mallards. I way prefer mallards over a dumb black duck!🥴

  • @tabithajenks6171

    Back in the day duck limits were run by points. There weren't individual limits per species in a daily limit you were allowed one hundred points and different species were worth a certain amount of points. Black ducks were worth one hundred points and if you shot one your day was over or you were over your limit.

    • @lead5s
      @lead5s 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      that depends on if you shot the black first, if you did then your day was done, if you shot a 20 point duck and then shot a black you were still legal if it put you over on points. thats how it was here in east tn, may be different where your from

They obviously rarely cross the big muddy so that IS a very special bird. Congrats again and I look forward to seeing the mount.

    Congrats on the awesome hunt. I don’t want to be a downer but it is really hard to tell if that was a full 100% black duck or not. Normally black ducks do not have the white trailing edge on the speculum (where the iridescent feathers are on the wing). That bird looked like it had a pretty obvious white trailing edge. Normally that indicates a Mottled Duck. There are a lot of websites out there to compare the two species. Mottled ducks would be super rare for your area too. It is just hard to tell. There are places out there to confirm the DNA and get the real story you would just have to look them up. Congrats regardless on the awesome bird!!!

    Hey guys, enjoy your channel, watch it mostly thru my streaming feed , so don't comment much. But when I saw that black duck size, that was cool. I started hunting waterfowl in Indiana in the 70's and we had a property that had two small rivers run thru it and blacks were plentiful, Moved to Central Ohio early nineties and have a couple rivers again that hold lots of blacks late, when the icebergs are floating. Congrats on the shoot, now gotta run, found the X for Canada geese in corn, me and the dog only in the morning, shoot em up.
