Just reported a banded pintail and the report stated the bird hatched in 2002 or earlier.  Oldest banded duck I ever killed by far.
Anybody ever kill anything older?

Shot a blue goose a couple springs ago that was 23 years old, just a couple months younger than myself at the time. It now resides on my wall.

I've only shot one banded bird.  It was a young hen mallard from that springs hatch.  Banded about 40 air miles from where I shot it.
