Nope, was there Sunday/Monday and just saw a handful. You need ag field or severe drought (hunt tanks) to have much luck on opener I have found. Our neighbor was plowing his wheat field that was covered in dove a few weeks ago. Nothing was there Sunday. He usually will plant right before opener and loads up with birds again. There is usually a good push later on but they only stick around a couple days.

Milo and wheat were cut 1 month early this year.
Some farmers will plow, some will leave it bare.
The outlook dont look good

Looks like that's what happened next to us Beav. Were thick on the wheat a month ago and now nothing as it is just plowed dirt. And he ain't going to plant with no rain in sight either.
