Not sure that duck stamp dollars can pay for restoring the LA coast. Hell, LA doesn't even know how the state will pay for it in the master plan.

I think that both the breeding grounds and the wintering grounds are necessary, but they cannot survive if they cannot reproduce. That is why I think (no biologist here) that the majority of the money is best spent in the Boreal and PPR. See the source of Louisiana's ducks

I agree about the breeding grounds--I'll admit I haven't done my homework other than what I hear on TV (hunting shows) or the occasional newspaper article. My impression is that a lot of that land is private, and to continue to keep it from being converted into farmland (possibly because of biofuel subsidies), DU and the like have to do these conservation programs. If that's the most efficient use of money because they can't buy the land outright, then I'm okay with it.
