What species do they band?

Does anyone know what type of ducks (ie:mallards, pintail, etc.) are banded? A buddy of mine said that he heard they don't band all duck species and wanted to know if I knew anything about it.

I didn't know the answer and thought I'd ask you pro's!

I think they band all the ducks they catch in their nets........may be wrong though.

I have shot banded Canada, Snow, Whitefront, Mallard, Pintail, BW teal, Canvasback, Redhead, so I'm pretty sure they band about everything. Oh yes Woodducks too.
