SD is filling up, wont be long and ND should have birds
Don't know about SD yet but things are just starting to heat up in northeast missouri with 18k snow's on/near squaw creek refuge today (first wave just started) it'll be a while for south dakota,lakes are locked up.not much snow so with these warm temps this week we won't have much sheet water to deal with in south dakota this spring so far,never know if we'll get a march dump.
I'm ready killer like you,my dog is sleeping on my hunting jackets as I type(hunt n peck) guns/ammo ready glad I stocked up on waterfowl ammo last summer as stores in my area ammo supplies are dried up.
good info kurt,in my old age I move/travel slow,i'll hit missouri once they get 1 million plus on the refuge then pack up and head to central south dakota around the first part of april.contact in lincoln neb said just dark geese showing up so far,he usually hunts the nebraska water shed area (southeast)unless they jump to south dakota early which might happen with this warm weather...You get much of a snow goose migration up your way? seems the majority of snows migrating follow the james river,50 miles either side .from years past.
Pretty sure squaw updates there’s today to 300k plus. But I haven’t verified that just a random screen shot from someone
heading home sunday morning I followed a "wad" maybe 5000 snows or more as we drove north along the river to omaha,major movement.
1less,thanx for the news flash....5000 birds is not a major movment. 5000 is not even huntable numbers. One or two volleys and there gone.
