It only took 40 years

Been hunting ducks for 40 years. Divers are my favorite and Bluebills are near the top. They decoy nice and are fast tough birds. I have kept very accurate records of all of my hunts over the years. I have taken over 400 Bluebills during those 40 years. Today was a first for me, I got a BB that was banded! A pair came in Nick took one and I the other. He noticed his had a rubber band stuck on its head. When Paka retrieved mine Nick said you killed a BAND!

Congrats! Thanks for sharing the story!
