So, this is just a plan, it may succeed, it may fail. Here’s what’s going on.

I am heading down to Nevada for Thanksgiving in 10 days. I spoke to my aunt, and she would like me to try to get a duck to serve alongside Thanksgiving dinner as a side dish.

Exciting, right? Anyway, starting day after tomorrow, I’m going to be hunting ducks daily to see if I can get one duck for Thanksgiving for my aunt.

I will post when the hunt starts, and I’ll post daily to let you know if I get one or not.

Should I fail to get a duck in time, don’t worry, we’ve got a plan in case I don’t get one.Wish me luck!

Haven’t posted in a while, had to get tested for COVID-19 Since it came back negative, I was finally able to start hunting. I was able to get the duck for Thanksgiving today.

well first I am seeing this thread, guess I missed it when you made it
but anyways, I wish you the best of luck to add a duck to the table for all to enjoy!

Thank you. I failed to mention, it’s a small hen. 1 lbs. 6 oz. empty weight. Largest hen I’ve ever shot was 3 pounds.

Just for information, In my state, you’re allowed seven ducks a day, but no more than two can be female mallards.

it’s small, but that’s OK. It won’t drown out the rest of the dinner. It’s a side dish, which was the plan.

I actually made some orange sauce to make Duck A’orange. Not sure if I spelled that right.

i’m also making gravy out of the giblets. In a nutshell, I’m contributing a few things to Thanksgiving dinner.

I am attempting to attach a photo of the duck, but it may not work. I’m having some problems.

i’m hitting the sack now, so I’ll talk in about 12 hours.
