Black Duck Drake VS Mallard Female.....this pic is for waterfowlers west of the Mississippi who do not get to see very many Black Ducks in their flyways !!!  Black Ducks are probably one of the smartest and wariest of all North American waterfowl. Calling them really does not work...but...they do make mistakes early in the morning  | ||

 Black ducks can be very wary around here but their numbers are fading slowly. They respond to calling if they're flying with Mallards and if your where they want to be, they work with grace into the timber or decoys. Use a Widgeon whistle if they won't respond to mallard calls. It will work sometime when nothing else will. How about the Mottled/Mexican/Florida species? Would like to see similar pics of those.Gray Ghost Hunting Safaris http://grayghostsafaris.com Phone: 615-860-4333 Email: hunts@grayghostsafaris.com NRA Benefactor DSC Professional Member SCI Member RMEF Life Member NWTF Guardian Life Sponsor NAHC Life Member Rowland Ward - SCI Scorer Took the wife the Eastern Cape for her first hunt: http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/6881000262 Hunting in the Stormberg, Winterberg and Hankey Mountains of the Eastern Cape 2018 http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/4801073142 Hunting the Eastern Cape, RSA May 22nd - June 15th 2007 http://forums.accuratereloadin...=810104007#810104007 16 Days in Zimbabwe: Leopard, plains game, fowl and more: http://forums.accuratereloadin...=212108409#212108409 Natal: Rhino, Croc, Nyala, Bushbuck and more http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/6341092311 Recent hunt in the Eastern Cape, August 2010: Pics added http://forums.accuratereloadin...261039941#9261039941 10 days in the Stormberg Mountains http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/7781081322 Back in the Stormberg Mountains with friends: May-June 2017 http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/6001078232 "Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running...... "If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you." | |||

Last one of the bunch that you asked for is the Mexican Duck ... also known as the Mexican Mallard. This is the drake in this pic which I shot in Los Mochis, Mexico.  Please note that the Mexican Duck is NOT a Mottled Duck. This is a sub-species of Mallard....and if someone is telling you that this is a Mottled Duck sub-species then I am afraid they are misguided souls and need some direction  | |||
