Right on! I am jealous. My only two woodies were hens... It was first light, and my first year and  I couldn't identify in air like I can now.

You won't be disappointed with there quality. As far as chances go I could have shot a hen 2 weeks ago but let my buddy shoot first because I wanted my first wood duck to be a drake. This time I shot the drake and hesitated on the hen and she flew to live another day.

Wishing I didn't hesitate because that would have been really cool to mount a pair.

Jealous!!

I've not ever brought down a woodie either and it's on top of my list... just need to figure out a place near Yakima to drop the boat in.

Great looking bird - too bad it didn't have any jewelry!

Never shot a duck with a band. After a few hundred birds I think I'm due.

Congrats in your first wood duck! They are definitely a gorgeous bird! Tons I them in my area. If I hunter sits in the right spot he could easily get a limit full of drakes down here
The pursuit of happiness is best spent In the outdoors doing manly stuff like killing things or fishing.
