I have 41 bands all the way from giant Canadas to BW teal. The first band I got was banded 10 years before as an adult and was banded in Maryland. I shot that bird a hen mallard in the far southwest corner of Minnesota. All the rest of my bands have been taken in Sd. I took a BW teal that had been banded 5 days before in Northwest Territory, Canada. That was a lot of fast flying to get here in 5 days. I have been hunting ducks and geese for 56 years.
