[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 308284, member: 704"] Raider like you I grew up near Devils Lake, but in the late 50s and early 60s. When I moved to Jamestown in 1971 people were still paying $3 to $4k to farmers bordering Arrowood National Wildlife refuge to hunt geese. At that time there was little to no sunflowers north of I94. I suppose there are other reasons for the migration to move west, but the late harvest of sunflowers and even corn is one of the reasons. Geese love corn especially when its cold and they need calories. They dont however lsnd in standing corn. Weather cycles, agriculture practices, and food availability will push migration to the the best food resources. [/QUOTE]
