Today was the opener for Florida's early teal and wood duck season. The wood ducks are only open for 5 days while teal are open for 9 days. The limit is 6 ducks but only two can be wood ducks.
My 14 y.o. dog retrieved both ducks from the pond behind my house and proceeded to swim after a black-belly tree duck until the duck got tired of the game and flew off.
I was surprised that the drake is still in full nuptial plumage. They usually look like the hens with a greenish head this time of year.
Duck for dinner tonight!
