Every duck hunter in the Deep South is asking the same question: where are the mallards--heck, where are the ducks? Mississippi State waterfowl researcher James Calicut joins me for a grounded, honest conversation about what seems to be happening across the Lower Mississippi Valley. We discuss weather, habitat change, agriculture, hunting pressure, habitat loss and what hunters are seeing from the blinds these days. Importantly, he shares a few preliminary insights from a growing number GPS-marked mallards, pintails and gadwalls he's tracking to determine whether these species are gone or simply redistributed.
