I drove from Austin to Abilene to Sweet Water to Lubbock to Amarillo to Stratford. Every tank along the hwy was full of Blue Bills, BWT, Wigeon, or Mottled plus a few Park Ducks. Lots and Lots of Ducks...

I've got a piece of sheet water right down the road that's been holding 20 greenheads and a couple dozen Canada's for a week now

Stopped and glassed some sheet water just outside of town and it was holding a bunch of greenheads, gaddies, gwt and spoonies. As I was looking through my binos at a greenhead a beautiful cinnamon teal swam into view. I really thought about sneaking over there with a pellet gun.

I also saw a duck today in an aly puddle right in the middle of town. Couldn't get a good look at it but it I don't think it was a park duck.

Mainly because it's sporting clay season.

I was out around the Haskell Area this past week and I saw more Greenheads in a 3 day period than ALL of this past season. ALL the tanks are FULL of Water from W'Ford to Abilene, Hope we get some more Rain Tonight to start filling up our Lakes!! Lakes to the West are in Poor shape, but that goes w/out saying!!

Saw a ton of birds on the way to Grayson Co and a bunch of birds on water around Hagerman. Geese were flying, including snows.

Stopped to pick up an order and saw a group of mallards circling by the Allen Cabela's parking lot as I pulled in to park. Stood in the front by the entrance with a couple outfitters and watched the birds drop to feed on a grass island in the Target parking lot. There's sheet water a couple hundred yards down the road from Cabela's behind the Allen Top Golf, it had a few mallards on it as well.
