Live and learn.
It's not everyone's thing. They're certainly not very edible, comparatively.

From a brief glance it seems its mostly a Northern California thing (https://californiaoutdoorsqas.com/20...ing-sea-ducks/).
In my state the season is for scoter, eider and long tail.
But hunting isn't done on the internet, so I have no idea what that was about. The regulations are posted on the internet these days.

I wish you wouldn't shoot things you aren't going to eat.
Taxidermy can go in the man cave, too. I got the weirdest look from a guy with a stuffed bobcat in his whole-house mancave, I yelled: "oh yum! Did you make bobcat casserole? or was it bobcat steak night?"
Sorry, sometimes I can't control myself even if it sounds judge-y.

Oh, personally, I don't hunt. I have some, well, professional interest in the field though and keep up on the regulations. I've been quail and pheasant hunting before, and ate them, but it really isn't an interest. I like seeing the dogs work though.

I prefer nature photography, myself.

Me too. My book collection, I never get tired of looking at Jim Brandenburg's work. Probably because I've lived in the woods before. That's what's in my lady cave.

i dont like reality shows but i have met dozens (hundreds ?) of people who watch them.

are people truly amazed or are they trying to make some point that adults shouldnt be playing video games anymore ?
came across this a while ago; never realized that so many people thought playing video games was a bad thing:

Let's be honest: IF the "playing" is being done to the exclusion of getting work and chores done or paying at least nominal attention to the wife and kids (since this is slated toward men playing video games...but the same would apply if the woman were the problem) then, yes, there IS an issue. Period.

But for the normal, everyday, just-for-fun player who plays after all the responsibilities are taken care of, like a bajillion working adults? This probably isn't a problem.

When people complain about video games being "bad" it is usually based on an extreme example, like someone's chunky brother-in-law who flops around eating Doritos from the bag and playing Call of Duty instead of looking for a job while his wife works, takes the kids to soccer practice, cleans like a dog and blah blah. It's generally not NORMAL everyday examples that are used as complaints or as worry about playing "too much". There will be a few overly-clingy partners demanding that the SO sit and stare them directly in the face and blah-blah thrown in for good hyperbole measure I but I can say (sample size of one) that I don't know any couples that actually have a "problem" with the SO playing video games to any great extent. If the person is too immersed, usually a "hey, remember me?" will do and they put down the controller and go do whatever.

I'm single and live with a roommate in a house that I own. Except for the portion she rents, pretty much the entire house is my personal "woman cave." No problem with a guy having his man cave if his partner has her own private space.

The Bay area is hyper-liberal to the point of idiocy at times, I can't imagine it being a hot bed for duck hunting activity, if it is it's most likely people coming in from other parts of the country, most certainly not the locals up there. They won't even send illegal immigrants that are known dangerous felons to ICE, can't imagine them hunting and killing cute little ducks
