actually with less shooters due to lead ban &more political machinations in fact the mallard population may well have exploded eating out house &home.hence nature dictates the weakest perish.here in shakey city and out at ellesmere it seems alls dandy ,plenty of tucker f...er,and cruisin.
same further south when camoed upin a paddock the other night had mobs of mallards cruise around us yahooing like boy racers bfore droppin in for a kai out of range!the canadas who did the same thing except stood eyeing us were in common language"extremely f..d off".lets face it any gamebird loves visiting the avian =of maccas ;a cockys crop paddock.
Its also interesting that in the past 2yrs since nature the old bitch decided to hula,that metrosexual mallards are increasing faster than adolescent acne.
ihave 8 who fly over my place at least twice daily mocking me.
yup saw five under me oak tree 2weeks ago -daughters cats attempted the obvious but apologies to gareth morgan,
a miss was as good as a mile. one old hen actualy chrged the bloody cats -the audacity of it!!
in short ;if humans attempt to control ma nature a F..up is as sure as christ made little apples.
actually camm youd be right there too,my late father often commented on the bloody black brutes who naIeld ducklings and wounded birds.plus theres nowt like a nice wee smoked eel!
