Saw a lot more ducks today than I usually see this time of year. Teal and big ducks. Glad too see it!

I'll agree! 2 weeks ago not too many. Took a bike ride yesterday and saw more mallards on a local lake then I saw all last year.

Hopefully it will be a good youth weekend. Last year was just OK she got 2 woodies. Didn't see any migrating ducks.

I am afraid it's going to be another late migration unless we get some real cold fronts soon. We never really got our normal push of widgeons into central Texas that we normally get, and I assume they stalled out north of here? Hoping for better migration this year(we have good conditions) but not holding my breath.

Decent to good numbers of birds already down on the Texas Coastal prairie. Lots of teal, some pintails and other big ducks along with specks and a few snows already.
