He said everything is frozen up except for the largest rivers but said he just saw about 20 ducks fly over him on his way home from wrk lol I think I’m gonna plan a trip with him next season


Mallards are extremely hardy ducks and can withstand freezing temps for a long time as long as they have access to food. They have adapted to dry feeding in cut corn fields all day and roosting in open water (rivers) at night. As long as the snow doesn’t cover all their food source they will hang in there. We still get some mallards that are early migrators but a little cold front isn’t gonna bring them down anymore. You need snow cover to get them moving
