The men that served and the families of the fallen on this Memorial Day deserve our deepest gratitude and respect. Their sacrifices remind us of the true cost of freedom and the courage it takes to protect our nation. As we honor their memory, we must also reflect on the ongoing impact their sacrifices have on loved ones left behind, ensuring we support them through our actions and words. This day is not just a remembrance; it’s a commitment to uphold the values they fought for and to strive for a future that honors their legacy. Thank you and God Bless the USA!!!

Mallard tracking! This map shows the movements of three Mallard drakes tagged near Lake Marion at the beginning of March. Each color on the map is a different duck. They were captured with a rocket net, banded and measured, and fitted with a solar-powered GPS tag worn as a small backpack between their wings. They’re part of a study aiming to better understand the migration routes of the wild Mallards who winter in South Carolina.

During migration, Mallards fly up to 50mph – or faster with a tailwind! The first of these three ducks to move north set off sometime after midnight two days after he was tagged. By 8am, he had made it to Ohio, and his tag was charging so efficiently as he flew that it started taking extra position fixes (the line of overlapping dots just north of the Ohio border) to avoid damage to its battery from overcharging. He then spent a little over a week at a small wetland in central Ohio before moving on up to Canada. The other two ducks (yellow and blue) spent quite a bit longer on the edge of Lake Marion before setting off on their different routes.
