I've been picking a decent amount off myself and kids for the last couple days. They don't bug me but come morel picking season. A guy can pull a hundred plus off himself during a day of hiking in the trees.
I put about a 150 miles on today around the Oakes and Lamoure areas. Only seen 2 flocks. One had about 30 birds and the other was about 3000. Big difference form 2 weeks ago when every corn field had a flock in it.
