    Ducks are a favorite game bird among hunters today and they have been for hundreds of years.

    Even if you're not a hunter, ducks are part of our collective consciousness about the natural world. Their migration calls herald the passing of the seasons and for most people, they are instantly identifiable in flight. Whether it's the "daffy" bill at the end of their noses or the flock of birds bobbing like corks in the water we all know, "It's a duck!"




    This program features a Altamaha draw hunt on Butler Island, a Georgia State Champion duck caller and a young wildlife artist who won his first Junior Duck Stamp award when her was ten years old.
