Thanks. It never occurred to me that waterfowl was being raised and released like pheasants. If that is occurring anywhere here in the Northwest, I've never heard about it.

It is not as bad as released pheasants, as the ducks do sometimes join wild flocks and become wild ducks. Wild duck populations around here have been abysmal this season.

I witnessed "Released Mallards" at Winchester's Nilo Farms about 35 years ago. Ducklings were trained to walk down a hill to get fed. As they grew, they learned to fly to the food. Shooters were positioned between the launch point and the food. You could have been wearing blaze orange and waved your hat - it wouldn't have made any difference. They were flying to the corn. Maybe the process has changed. Hope so. Not my cup of tea.

The set up down here is much different than that, fortunately.

Julia cooked one of them and I am getting our to cook the rest. It is an acquired taste but good once you get used to it

Duck is no problem especially when it's marinated in Veri Yeri Teryaki sauce and slow simmered with mushrooms , carrots and water chestnuts . If you'd said goose I'd have agreed
