Brief, are duck decoys valuable?
While no longer used today due to advances in decoy materials and technology, these wooden duck decoys are now considered highly collectible, with entire auction houses dedicated to the buying and selling of vintage duck decoys, magnificent works of folk art.
Do ducks fly better in the rain?
Yes, ducks do fly in the rain and wind. Although it may seem strange, duck hunting in the wind, fog, and rain can be a good idea. ... Just for the record, in lousy conditions, ducks are likely to fly to an agreeable pond and hunker down. Invest in a well-camouflaged duck boat if you are going to hunt near the water.

But here's an inconvenient truth: Ducks and geese don't always land into the wind. In fact, when the wind is light, they might approach from any direction. ... Birds won't feel as compelled to bank into the wind on approach, and the rising or setting sun in their eyes will help keep you concealed.
Calef chooses a blind site so the wind will be blowing from his back, either directly or quartering. "I'll always set up on the upwind side of the lake or river so the wind is coming from behind me. This means the ducks will approach through the front door."
