Beautiful birds. From what I understand, they are birds that escaped captivity and don't really migrate much. I've never seen any except for local birds on ponds. |

I knew what u are talkin bout but I'm pretty sure the duck above phil's fire place is a mandarin duck. But been several years since I've been there so could be wrong |

Did he put them out, or did they just show up? If a bird is pen raised you can shoot it any time you like, if you can prove it's pen raised... Jase shot one in DC 9 |

If you look at just the body on those...they have a lot of coloration and pattern just like a wood duck. |

Just don't shoot it with a .270.  Even a good taxidermist won't be able to put the pieces of that one back together.

Not sure but I doubt they got them out. Went the year before katrina and saw them then. They may have been clipped because they were not penned up. |

The first hunt and first retrieve my lab did was a mandarin. They're not very common. I hear that people have em as pets and they escape. |

I say leave 'em and let them populate. They won't go far if they were from the zoo or pets to start with. |
