My first Common Goldeneye (Banded) from 2009
Took myself 2 seasons to get a goldeneye off my hit list. Was happy to see some bling on its leg when my lab brought it back. Immature bird but it was my first eye and duck band.

@Buck72669 its been on a lot of my clients lists too... now they are having them mounted an put on there walls. All coming from the same body of water this one came from... two were mounted this past 2012 season! Mount was done by Todd of Birdman Studios out of Colorado.
