Well, it seems the ducks, per the article I attached a link to, have really suffered some significant losses. The lab mentioned is less than 1/2 hr away. The great lakes and other rivers, bodies of water being froze over, causing starvation. Natural event, but makes you think. I have a small lake, large pond, 20 acres or so, that I look over out my kitchen window, usually this time of year, as soon as it thaws, ice is gone, those black and white diving ducks appear, lots of fry and other small fish here, wonder if I will see them this year, the numbers according to the article are seemingly quite large.
