EP 254. Waterfowl Habitat Management: Good Intentions, Bad Ideas, Mismanagement

Duck Season Somewhere

Episode • Jun 9, 2022 • 56m

Ramsey and Kevin Nelms conclude this year's 4-part duck habitat series discussing cypress brakes and bad habitat management ideas they've seen along Hell Road that's usually paved with otherwise good intentions.  As USDA NRCS Wildlife Biologist in the Mississippi Delta, Nelms has spent decades designing and developing numerous private-lands waterfowl impoundments. He's worked extensively with private landowners throughout the region, improving desirable waterfowl habitat conditions, enhancing duck utilization, even putting together a handbook that Ramsey considers must-have essential for managing waterfowl habitat (refer to related links in the episode description for your own PDF copy). This is the final episode of a 4-part series that duck habitat nerds both new and old appreciate.
