EP:406 | The Mysterious Black Duck

This week we’re joined by serious waterfowler Chris Paradise and Brendan Shirkey, a research biologist, hunter, and punter with the Winous Point Marsh Conservancy, believed to be the oldest duck hunting club in North America. The Black Duck is a favorite among waterfowlers, yet many hunters feel they don’t see the numbers they once did. We dive into this secretive species, discussing its habitat preferences, breeding range, behavior, how to hunt it, and whether its population is truly in decline. It’s an informative and engaging conversation.

Listen, learn, and enjoy.
