In Ellis County, there are a lot of birds here that weren't last week.
You guys seeing these too in your area?

Went out last night almost limited in 45 minutes and there were mainly bigger white wings where there were mainly mournings the first half of the week.

Lots of new birds moved in around fort worth, but they all stick to subdivisions under construction filled with sunflowers, powerlines, water on the muddy roads and gravel They wont cross the roads to the double plowed milo fields Lake grapevine is LOADED with roosting whitewings

None yet in Woodson either. Thats strange. We shot local young birds on the opener with a few mature locals. Nobody hunted our place last weekend due to the rain. yesterday I went out to look at our fields.....lots of mature, northern birds everywhere. We did not have many birds opening weekend either. Throckmortan....about halfway to Woodson actually.

Got into them in Albany this weekend. Their little wings are a little harder to break than the local birds.
