Clip Art Duck

Duck is the common name for a number of species in the Anatidae family of birds. The ducks are divided between several subfamilies in the Anatidae family; they do not represent a monophyletic group but a form taxon, since swans and geese are not considered ducks. Ducks are mostly aquatic birds, mostly smaller than the swans and geese, and may be found in both fresh water and sea water. Ducks are sometimes confused with several types of unrelated water birds with similar forms, such as loons or divers, grebes, gallinules, and coots.

Duck hunting is a popular sport enjoyed by outdoorsmen from around the globe. Ducks are a migratory species, meaning they spend their summers in the northern locations, such as Michigan, North Dakota, and Canada, then when cooler temperatures hit, they begin a long journey south to warmer areas like Texas, Arkansas, Mexico, and South America. Many hunters prepare for months for the upcoming duck season and take great enjoyment out of every aspect of their sport. Especially when dealing with firearms, it's important to check all of your equipment to be sure it is in great working condition before opening day. Some basic supplies a duck hunter may have are: decoys, duck calls, camouflage clothing, and a shotgun. Some avid hunters may even spend time and money on a duck boat or bird dogs.
