The map was produced by Osborne Lab and "demonstrates winter harvest distribution of mallards banded during winter in Arkansas over 3 different time periods." Definitely fewer, percentage-wise, harvested in south LA since 2000.

I've seen oodles and oodles of contradictory evidence of this theory you speak of.

Where do the ducks roost? They need a roost. If they have a roost nearby, they can keep using the corn as a food source.
However, if there is no open water, they are not sticking around.
Geese will roost on a frozen lake that doesn't have snow on it. I've never seen ducks do the same. And once you get snow on the ice, the geese cease using it as a roost.

How about roosting in a "farming for ducks" frozen corn field with a touch of snow?
