Waterfowl on the move
 

All morning so far here at aeroframe services the geese and ducks are on the move big time all headed north. I haven't seen this in a long time looks like a mass migration. What the hell is going on?

It's the end of the world!!!!!!

shut up fool... they gotta come back sometime. I will be waiting.

lol!!!!!!!!!!!! That's great!!!! It's the end of the world hide your wives, hide your children!!!!

They still flying i guess they getting the hell out of dodge with this weather coming.

All this rain scatters birds. Ricefields that were dry, now have 6" of water and they're full of ducks. Rain re-shuffles the deck and I got dealt a bad hand.

Sheetwater is like crack for ducks, they can now get out of the marsh and go eat those vittles in the newly flooded fields

They were everywhere this morning, but kinda hard headed we only killed 3 and saw prolly more specs than I have all year just didnt wanna play with us today.

I know they're scattered, but this is unreal just came back from outside and seen at least 6 more good size flocks headed north.

Word! Kinda like when the season closes and people see their fields and ponds full of ducks and they say "I wish the season would be longer". But really they're just comin outta the reserves and impoundments because there's no more pressure.

They don't get here til February!:rotfl:

Ha the cold weather doesn't get here til February but the ducks are here. Besides everybody knows its DU's fault!

Is a tsunami coming? They can "cents" those things.

X10!! I chuckle every time I hear someone say "the ducks are just getting here". By the middle of Feb. they are thinking about going back north. I wish they would have youth hunts in the reserves 2 times per week to move the birds around.

Then they would probably leave altogether. An avid waterfowler and guide said yesterday on another forum, "The refuges help save us from ourselves". Maybe the last weekend of the splits would be good.

Never thought about them leaving altogether. You are probably right.

Would be fun til they left though

it would be so much fun!

It's not just that. You can't leave flooded timber flooded or you will kill the trees. Soon as duck season is over a lot of the clubs cut the water off their property. Well THEN the ducks show up in Fontenot's field and he thinks dey just getting here when the season is over. When in reality, "you are just reshuffling the deck."

And we got dealt 7-2 offsuit!
