Not all ducks quack! Some, like this Northern Pintail male, have a short whistle-like chirp, as you can hear in this video. With their long necks and stunning plumage, Northern Pintails are the picture of elegance. But they’re not just about looks—they’re also incredible travelers. During migration, they can reach speeds of up to 48 miles per hour, flying through the night. The longest nonstop flight ever recorded for a Northern Pintail covered an impressive 1,800 miles. 📷: Mick Thompson | Bird

Hot Bite 60 — Weekend Review: Northern Michigan & the U.P. Warm weather slowed salmon migration, but fish are still being caught in Hesperia, on the Betsie River, and near Tippy Dam. Big Glen, Little Glen, Lake Leelanau, Torch Lake, and Lake Charlevoix lit up for perch using minnows, wigglers, and crawler chunks, with some bonus walleye mixed in. East Grand Traverse Bay’s Cisco action was strong, and Big Bay de Noc produced steady smallmouth bass. Cooler weather ahead should kick the fall run in
