Sunscreen and warm weather clothes . . . A big part of the problem with duck numbers down here

There are more mallards in NY than we have ever seen this time of year. They are stacked up like cord wood in the marshes around Montezuma. We open second season on Saturday. I doubt with the weather they will move south this year. Sorry boys.

I have heard that on here and also from other people. It is not stopping me from going though.

Thanks for the fantastic pictures! That is a nice ricefield trunk. We have blue birds, mosquitos, gators, snakes but hardly a duck! David |

My cousin, Harry Lane, grew up on Combahee Plantation and built trunks as part of his business. We used him on several occasions and I helped him build and install one. The whole rice culture history around here is fascinating

That is about right, although there are a few.

I need a new trunk! I have a decent guest cabin so you and Harry can come up and build and install it? They are a work of art. My existing ones are 26 years old and going strong. Merry Christmas David |
