Every day, the duck population grows...

I’ll bet you didn’t know Minnesota has a duck plan. It’s true. You can download it from the Department of Natural Resources web site. What’s more, DNR officials are seeking public input on its plan; they want to know if its plans to recover breeding and migrating duck populations are appropriate and if they address your concerns. You should feel honored that they care.

There are a half-dozen men in my part of Blue Earth County that have a duck plan too. Their plan involves canoes, muck boots, camouflage, long guns, and the body of water out back that’s speckled with black ducks. These men plan to implement their duck plan one half hour before sunrise on October 4.

I have a duck plan as well. It involves ear plugs.
