On one of the Tennessee duck hunting facebook groups, a local hunter posted a pic of a very rare duck - a Mandarin Duck that he had shot on Old Hickory Lake.
I had never heard of or seen one of these ducks and I did some research. Apparently, they are native to eastern China, Japan, and parts of Russia. Some were brought to the US and escaped. They are simply stunning birds and the only invasive species from China that I would welcome.
