"Drought has a bright side for ducks"

"Wetlands will be quiet on the third Saturday of March, usually the opening
day of the duck-shooting season.  The peace should be permanent."

Too right it should.

Cheers,
Karen Pearson.
"This year, at least, wild ducks will be spared the obscene slaughter that a
dwindling band of shooters calls sport."  The Sunday Age
