07/11/2012 02:30PM I'll be that way next week. I'll keep my eye's open for a dirty duck. :) I rescued several ducks from chimneys and fireplaces over the years... Never a Merganser though. |

07/11/2012 02:08PM What a great story for the girls to remember and tell for decades to come... |

07/08/2012 08:42PM Nice job! Think of the story that duck had to tell when it got back to its cronies!!! |

07/08/2012 08:55AM WT? Seen the post title a couple days ago but hadn't clicked on it till now. That is bizarre. At least someone looked before they sat down for their business. I can just see someone taking care of natures call and having something from below flying up into their undercarriage. Yeah, that would get one's attention. LOL |

07/02/2012 08:39PM Omg, hilarious! And actually, the inside of that crapper could look worse. LOL |

07/02/2012 08:01PM What a story! Good job. We were there two years ago and I recall that site is Number 4. The number should be on the back of the seat. |

06/30/2012 03:01AM What a great story with a happy ending - no pun intended. Who knows how long that poor girl was down there, but thanks for having the heart to rescue it, and I'm glad she made a "clean break". |

06/29/2012 10:44PM All I can say is wow. I also believe in never look down the thunder dome. What a surprise that would have been had you sat down. |

06/29/2012 09:13PMquote mcsweem: "That's nuts which campsite was it? " I don't know what number campsite it was but it was the the first campsite southwest of the portage from Hatchet Lake. I think that is close to your island campsite. |

06/29/2012 07:02PM That's nuts which campsite was it? I was on the island site a month ago and there was no duck in the scrapper at least I don't think so, didn't really check |

06/28/2012 03:40PM Thanks for all the comments. We had a great trip, including the "Duck Incident". The fishing wasn't great for us but we go more to canoe than fish. After the duck incident whenever someone needed to make a trip to the to toilet and wanted to be sure to have some privacy they would call out "I'm going duck hunting" and the reply was (obviously) "quack, quack." |

06/28/2012 11:10AM Nice rescue! I almost burst out laughing at work while reading this, I think the duck on the rope is what did it :) Other than THAT very strange event, how was the rest of the trip? |

06/27/2012 11:14PM Cool story and one lucky duck! Hope there isn't a bear in my latrine when we get there! |
Ho Ho |
06/27/2012 10:22PM That is a crazy story. Thanks for saving the duck - and the latrine. |

06/27/2012 05:32PM Hooded Mergansers nest in my wood duck boxes every year. Maybe it was looking for a home? |
Goldenbadger |
06/27/2012 04:39PM That's crazy! Nice job with the rescue. I would be happy too if I had been in that duck's situation and was finally released to the water! I'm sure she/he was very happy to get a bath! |
