North Dakota Hunting:

Waterfowl

Geese, Ducks, Coots, Mergansers, Swan - During the fall migrations thousands of potholes and sloughs attract migrating ducks in countless numbers, bolstering an already huge population of birds hatched and raised in the state. ( Incidentally, we lead the nation in duck production.) A sizeable population of resident giant Canada geese is soon augmented by hundreds of thousands of migrating geese that stop over on their journey southward.
