I killed a black duck this weekend in Otwell. It's the first one I've ever shot and realized. It looked like a mallard hen in the water. When we got it out, it was huge and his belly looked like an oil spill. :up: View attachment 19686 View attachment 19687

Nice. We have killed a couple in Texas before bit that's the first I have seen here
black duck....aka....BP duck haha congrats dude
Very pretty duck but to me it looks more like a black duck X mallard hybrid, the head looks like it has a little green, but the dead give away is the little white tips on the secondary feathers ont he wings. you may correct me if thats not white on the wings. Anyway, awesome duck
Killed it this weekend?? Probably didnt have any competition out there:thumb:
Beautiful duck!!
Def. no green on the head. Looks just like all the black ducks I've seen mounted. There were a few on the wall in the clubhouse and they looked just like this one.

I appologize, i looked it up, and blackducks can have a little white on the tips
yeah, no competition this weekend. It was almost as if I was the only one out there.
very pretty duck man!! ive killed 5 in my time!! there alwaz a nice addition to the bag of ducks we get to kill in arkansas!!!
thanks... Now I can check that one off the list. Would like to kill a red head, canvas back, ringneck, and a hybrid.

Did I mention I want them all to be banded. :clap:
Never shot a black, but I did see some on the field last week. Not the one I was hunting but the oine I used to hunt right next to me!!! Sucked... thousands of ducks and I couldn't fire a shot.
Congrats, we killed one off the White yesterday as well, it was the first duck out of the group to hit the water.
This was the first duck in the hole on Monday.

Snydedawg...been there; done that.
yeah, no competition this weekend. It was almost as if I was the only one out there.
I can't imagine why you would have been the only one out there this past weekend.....:skeptical:

Cool duck. I have only seen two while I was hunting and they were with a flock of mallards.

If you were at Otwell, then I probably heard you shoot...
