This article originally appeared in Wisconsin Waterfowl Association’s April 10, 2020 Newsletter edition.
This is a special edition of the WWA newsletter. We’re trying to keep you full of topic relevant waterfowling information, on a more frequent basis. The last one was just over a week ago. It takes time to research, write, edit and compile everything into such a newsletter, so we may not be as in-depth as we try to be normally, or have such diverse authors, and please forgive any typos! But we feel it’s important to take a deep breath (at a socially appropriate distance) to find joy in the things that have brought us together – waterfowling.
Check out some artwork of historic significance – a preview of just some of the ORIGINAL Wisconsin duck stamp artwork by Les Didier that has been donated to help support WWA missions by his son, Jim.
