Green tree or a cypress break? I can't imagine one landing in the woods
I know a guy who supposedly killed one on a New Mexico ski trip back in the day

It was in a public wildlife management area with cypress and tupelo. Believe me we were stunned. We got the duck ID book out to make sure.

All three are in Bucephala.
And to the fellow that shot a Barrow's in Louisiana, that's impressive. I doubt there are more than a handful of reports of those guys in Louisiana.

I just remember i was probably 8-9 when it happened and my dad was pretty excited about it. I on the other hand was blood thirsty and wanted to shoot more ducks.

i had one float up on my deck after a hurricane. It was mounted on a piece of driftwood. I hung it up and it lasted till katrina. Nobody knew what it was but me, as I was a wildlife biology student at the time.

Do any of you shoot Ruddy Ducks often. I shot one two years ago in my crawfish pond in Charenton and had no idea what it was had to use a book to id it. Never saw one before even in flight.

I have never seen a ruddy, but have heard of them being killed.
Oddest bird kill was an Old Squaw killed in a beanfield in Bosco.

I am going on a DNR draw hunt next month. Harvest reports show a good chance of shooting a ruddy.

It wasn't me that killed, to clarify. But I did see the bird mounted

The long-tailed duck is gregarious, forming large flocks in winter and during migration. They feed by diving for mollusks, crustaceans and some small fish. Although they usually feed close to the surface, they are capable of diving to depths of 60 m (200 ft).

My best friend killed one in what was known as "the rice fields" in st any parish, circa 1982. Think it's a wma now.
