Ducks Unlimited conserves habitat at the continental scale to meet the lifecycle needs of North America's waterfowl. Virginia is part of the Atlantic Flyway, providing important migration and wintering areas for many of the continent's waterfowl such as American black ducks, mallards, canvasbacks and Canada geese.
DU's Virginia conservation programs have restored and enhanced more than 45,000 acres of wetlands. Virginia's conservation projects are designed to maximize the amount and quality of migration and wintering waterfowl habitat as well as improve conditions for waterfowl production.
