After hunting ducks for approximately 45 years, I finally shot a banded duck. It was a hen redhead and the band is so worn only a few of the numbers are readable. I have been told that a 50-50 mixture of water and muriatic acid will clean a band good enough to see the numbers, so that is my next project.

Nice work! Be sure to post the banding info when you get it. Here's a banded black drake I shot the other day....banded 3/12 in DE:
