Flyway Biologist Reports Duck Crop Prospects
A rainy spring in the North yields only a modestly brighter outlook for next fall’s duck population, says US Fish and Wildlife Service biologist Robert H. Smith. Nesting in Southern Manitoba may be up from 1947, but overall numbers remain not notably improved. High water creates risks, forcing nests to higher ground or drying pools, potentially harming ducklings. Water levels damaged Manitoba nesting, especially at Delta marsh due to heavy flows over Clandeboye dam.
