pretty cool, i was looking to see if there was a shiny piece of metal under the water on a leg, that would be pretty cool to get a picture of a banded duck. kinda like the time i called brett out on getting a picture of a banded duck and not 1 week later he had an awsome picture of a banded hen mallard in flight. cool pics thanks for sharing :thumb

Okay KillerBee it's hard to be as cool as Brett. He took one week to post a band. Here's my attempt to be cool like Brett. It took me a lttle over a month.

It's not a duck but it does have a neck band and a leg band.

Nice pics. Late last year during the waterfowl hunt there was a couple of geese with neckbands always in the same field. They were smart and picked a field in the middle of town not big enough to hunt where i'd have to see them every morning on my way out to the marshes.
