migration 26

[OL Deadeye]

Had the Field duck Tornado several times near Wildrose and also Quill Lake Sask. The young man I was hunting with had a very high Quality Camera. Started taking pictures and when we got back to his Family's farm downloaded them onto large P.C. could not believe all the different species of ducks in the photos ware you might think was mostly Mallards and some Pintails and one photo showed 4 in a flock of around 150 with leg bands. Nothing Better than hunting Christmas time Full Curly tail Mallards in Montana hot Springs

I do think the big winds forecasted for tomorrow will shake things up. Saw a big bunch of GWT today that I'm 99 percent sure aren't local. Looking forward to another jaunt into the marsh Saturday morning!

I talked to a couple duck hunters from iowa today near devils lake who told me it's tough all over.

They have been coming to ND for the last 13 years. I mentioned there are about 200 mud hens every day in front of our lot and they said they are in big numbers everywhere they have been so far.

I have been hunting Northern ND and MT and Sask. for almost 60 years we always went MEA weekend to Sask. Than came back around Halloween to ND. and thanksgiving to MT. that always seem the best to me. And Christmas to MT. for those fat mallards along the Yellowstone
