“Where are the ducks!?”You want answers and we don't blame you. This episode explores some hard truths affecting where and when ducks arrive in the southern United States. Our expert panel includes host, Joel Brice, Chief Conservation Officer, with guests John Devney, Chief Policy Officer, Dr. Frank Rohwer, president and chief scientist of Delta Waterfowl, and Dr. Chris Nicolai, waterfowl scientist.You've been asking. We've heard you. There are five key parts of duck distribution:Duck Production – When conditions are dry on the prairies, like they've been for years now, few ducks are produced. That means there are fewer juvenile birds in the fall flight. Birds of the year are easier to hunt, so the overall numbers seen and taken drops. Weather Variability – We talk to long-time hunters and farmers in Canada and the Dakotas. They tell us it's staying warmer, longer in the north country. Here in North Dakota, it used to be 50/50 whether we'd be frozen out by Halloween. Now the water commonly remains wide open and fields stay bare of snow until Thanksgiving, even Christmas. Ducks are staying north longer. Changes in Agriculture – There's a lot of internet chatter about migrations and wintering areas shifting, but the data mostly shows otherwise. However, in the core wintering areas, agricultural practices have changed and that impacts exactly where within those areas those the birds hang out. Public Land Issues – Public lands – HISTORICALLY FAMOUS places to provide habitat and high quality hunting opportunities [BM1] – are falling to ruin due to declining resources for maintenance and management. On the other hand, private lands are being managed more beneficially than ever, so that too impacts where ducks spend their time. Hunter Expectations and Regulations –At Delta WE ARE THE DUCK HUNTERS ORGANIZATION. We understand expectations are influenced by what you've experienced, the kind of seasons you've lived through, the variety of regulations you've hunted under in your lifetime, and – today – by social media. What you've personally lived through determines what YOU consider a LOUSY duck season or a GREAT one.The dedicated team at Delta doesn't take any of this lightly. We're digging in, and doing the analysis.Delta Waterfowl: https://deltawaterfowl.org Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DeltaFans/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/deltawaterfowl/Twitter: https://twitter.com/DeltaWaterfowl/

The FowlWeather Podcast welcomes John Devney, policy guru with Delta Waterfowl Foundation to talk action on the prairies to conserve duck habitat. Policies differ greatly between the US and Canada, and John takes us down the rabbit hole about ways to conserve wetlands in prairie Canada. We also lean hard into what Delta is doing to study duck population biology to inform duck harvest policy and management.

Sifting through random solving-duck-world topics like we duck hunters do is a lot like poking glowing embers around late-night campfires. Hardly anyone better to do that with, either, than Delta Waterfowl's John Devney. He packs facts, common-sense and, optimism to the party, sharing them like cold pearly pops and brats (or smores for the youngsters). Prairie conditions, nesting ground updates, voluntary restraint, dryfield hunting then versus nowadays, duck harvests in Canada compared to the United States, and duck hunter numbers--changes since 1999 are mind-blowing--and more are discussed in-depth. Small chance these topics won't make their way into your next world problem-solving campfire talks.

During a recent visit to Mississippi, Delta Waterfowl John Devney and Ramsey Russell discussed need-to-know duck topics. How dry is the Prairie Pothole Region, what will ducks do, how exactly might it affect waterfowl reproduction, and why isn't Plan B Alaska nesting as productive?

What ever became of Maryland's HB 0911 that would have marginalized boat hunters on Susquehanna Flats? Due to covid-related Canadian border closures, waterfowl population surveys and banding activities have been cancelled for the 2nd consecutive year. Will hunting be like writing checks without knowing our account balance? And finally, why might a 3-pintail daily bag limit make sense? Super informative episode.

It's late-May, the Dakota prairies are in great shape, and already there are bright yellow, little mallard and pintail fuzzballs on the scene, preparing for the flight south this fall. John Devney of Delta Waterfowl is an avid duck hunter, a natural born communicator. He and Ramsey talk about favorite North American duck species (it'll probably surprise you) and favorite places to duck hunt in the US. Low on the water and coming in hot like decoying ringnecks, their conversation dives into lots of interesting waterfowl hunting topics. What's going on with specklebellies in the Deep South as compared to the Pacific Flyway? What's happening with pintails - they're probably shooting too many in Mexico, right?! And what about all of today's many modern hardcore hunters traveling to Canada - that's certainly impacting the fall flight, huh? Federal stimulus dollars galore are being spent to mitigate coronavirus, but how will the 2020 Pandemic affect waterfowl conservation efforts, such as banding and censusing? All of that and more in today's episode of Duck Season Somewhere.

My guest today is John Devney, Senior Vice President of Delta Waterfowl. John and I have been friends now for over 15 years and he has a wealth of knowledge on the challenges surrounding duck production and duck hunting. Today we talk about John’s background growing up hunting and fishing in Minnesota and how he came to work at Delta. We talk about the unique value proposition that Delta brings to the conservation and hunting conversations. Everything from balancing duck production with farming in the prairie pothole region to CRP and WRP programs here in the US, the Alternate Land Use program in Canada, the farm bill and other legislative initiatives. We also talk about Delta’s long leveraged use of predator management as a conservation tool, where it is deployed, why and the results of predator management. We discuss Delta’s First Hunt initiative and how that initiative is aimed at hunter recruitment of all ages, not only our youth but anyone who has never hunted ducks or geese, Delta’s First Hunt initiative is making great strides in increasing the number of waterfowl hunters and that conversation actually brought us to a very interesting cross roads because for those of us that hunt increasingly crowded public ground, it would seem that hunter recruitment is NOT a problem, in fact it would appear to be just the opposite. In fact there is another issue in play and that is public access, so John and I discuss how decreasing levels of public access compounds and impacts the hunter recruitment issue, really interesting perspective and look at that whole equation. We then talk about the overall conditions across the PPR and what impact the flooding conditions across the Midwest may have on duck production this year. John has been a great friend of mine for a long time and we, as waterfowlers, are truly fortunate to have John and Delta working on policies that impact the future of ducks and the future of duck hunting.
