buffleheads
Friend of mine was asking me if you can hunt bufflehead ducks in alberta n i honestly wasn't sure. looked in regs and online can't find anything. thought maybe you guys would have a quick easy answer for me thanks.

All actual ducks are huntable. Only non huntable water fowl are grebes, loons, swans, cormorants. You can shoot buffleheads, greater and lesser scaup, scoters, redheads, canvasback, both goldeneye species, ringnecks, mallards, pintails, both teal species, shovelers, wood ducks, and coots. As well as all geese.

True lol. Forgot them, which is funny as Ihad the luck to knock down a full coloured hoody drake two years back on chip lake.

Those were the days
When I first came here 40 years ago, I was hunting with a doggy friend, and I was identifying the ducks as they flew by, old squaws, ring necks, whislers, I'm sure you get the idea. Gary put his gun down and said "in Alberta there are Pintails, mallards and outher ducks" Don't shoot other ducks when you can get a limit of mallards.

Your friend Gary doesn't know what good ducks are Densa; Widgeons and teal are better than mallards by far.

Never tried a bufflehead.....might be that they are too fast and too small for a lousy shot like me to hit. Maybe thats why I stick to the big mallards and teal that accidentally veer into my shot column.:) |
