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.
Maturity is when you have the power to destroy someone who did you wrong but instead you breathe, walk away, and let life take care of them.

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.
