Default Duck species to mount
If you could pick just one duck to mount and keep what would it be? Mine would be a bufflehead drake even though it's a little bird the colors on them i think are beautiful.

I got a single greeny, a pair of mallards, a pair of pintails, and a tree duck mounted. A drake widgeon is next on my list to mount. I just can't kill one! Haven't killed one in years. Had a big flock come on us the other morning. Should have taken em but tried to let them make another pass.

Beautiful Spec, even if it didn't have bands. Look at all the black bars. Belly is almost solid black.

I killed a juvy speck one time that had a neck collar and both legs banded. I took the bands off wanting to kill one just like w's to mount, but lost all the bands.

I think one of the best looking ducks is a late season drake shoveler. I can count on one hand how many shovelers I have killed there are not many in the places I hunt. Favorite duck is a pintail though, just don't get to shoot many of them, maybe ten in my lifetime.
