Über die Jagd auf eurasian wigeon

The wigeon is one of the most common migratory ducks in Norway, and hunting is best during the autumn migration in September and October. Large flocks can gather on coastal meadows and in shallow bays.

Hunting is done as stand hunting, typically along the coast where wigeons graze on grass meadows near the sea. Decoys can be used effectively.

The male wigeon has a distinctive whistling call that carries far. You often hear the flock before you see it.
