I am, as you probably know by now, a enthusiastic supporter of the federal duck stamp program. The 15 bucks you spend for the stamp goes to purchase land for national wildlife refuges and waterfowl management areas. This is land important not only to waterfowl but also to hundreds of other wildlife species. Refuges are great place to see birds. Where do you buy the stamps? At U.S. Post Offices, at some national wildlife refuges, at some sporting and outdoor stores, even at Walmart and K-Mart. You also can purchase them online at www.duckstamp.com, and by telephone at 1-800-782-6724. The stamps are miniature works of art, always featuring a species of waterfowl. They make good gifts.
