Duck hunting in Arkansas is the finest in North America. Huge Creek Waterfowl Club is on a major flyway smack in the middle of the “world renowned Mississippi flyway”, the largest migration route in the world. Witness first hand the many and varying species of ducks that go through the Mississippi flyway.

Who can help identify this duck?
It appears to be a male duck (judging by the size). He’s usually alone, so I have no other ducks to compare him to. He has markings that remind me of a mallard, but different. His head is dark auburn (not green) and he does have the lighter band on his throat. His body is a very set alight tan color. He’s larger than a mallard also. I’ve never seen one like him. I live in South Florida and he’s in the pond by my household.

How do you clip a duck’s wings?
I have two 7 week old wild mallard ducks and they have started to glide small distances. They run every time we try to hold/pet them but i always treat them well.I was wondering if it’d be a good thought to clip their wings. If it is, how do you do it and at what age should this be done? Also, does this hurt them and/or stop them from flying forever, or just until they molt?

We have some pet ducks. Two Peking (1 Male 1 Female) and 1 Mallard (Female). The Mallard had 7 ducklings a while back and we can identify four of those ducklings as female Mallards but the other three are all black with a small patch of white on the underside of there neck. Are those some type of Mallard or Peking or something?

Would a mallard nest in a tree?
I live in minnesota and I have a female mallard in a big hole in one of my trees. I’ve never seen her leave so I’m assuming she has eggs. I thought at first it was a wood duck but upon closer inspection it is a mallard. I’m unable to see inside very well as it is pretty high up. Just curious as if this is possible as I thought mallards only nested on the ground.
