Went up to our place last weekend north of Bowie. Saw very few birds.

I'm starting to see groups of 10 to 15 in Weatherford. Didn't see any for about a week after the rains.


No matter how high a duck flies a hammer still breaks a window.

I got an email from the Dove Blasters with a new field with sunflowers and water near Bowie they just got. Covered with dove in the video they took. Bowie got a lot of rain 2 weeks ago while north where we are got a trace.

Very dry in South Tx. If you have a food source with water close to it you are in good shape. Seems like the migrators haven't made it down yet. Hoping this little front they are talking about will help bring more numbers down. We will be in good shape if things stay the way they are now, but hoping for more birds.
