I saw a couple on a tank yesterday in Wichita County and one of my buddies said he saw a group of about 15 flyover in Clay County. I'm itching to drop some in the decoys!! Anyone else seeing any early birds yet?

Yeppers, I'm seeing mucho.

Seeing quite a few more than I have in the last few years just a few miles south of Austin.

I saw some pinnies during teal season, and this week saw some spoonies and wigeon in north texas

check out friends of Hagerman National WIldlife refuge fb page, they post a lot of updates about what birds they are seeing on the refuge which will give you a good idea of how the migration is going in the N TX area anyways. Doesn't mean they will be anywhere else LOL they are safe on the refuge.

Good tip, thanks!

Went to our place last night to turn on the well for a few days. Jumped a group of about 5 off the little part holding water right now. But could not tell what they were.

Probably mud hens you're blind

Check my local indicator pond today, notta!

I live and hunt right outside of Hagermans. Water level is very low and the number of ducks is a lot less than last year. Saw maybe 10 ducks, gadwalls and pintails. Hoping for some rain before the season opens.

I think this is going to be a warm dry winter. The guys that can pump water and flood crops will probably do pretty good. The guys that are at the mercy of the conditions are gunna struggle.

Seeing good numbers of early migrators from SE Tx to NTx.

Ducks errywhere

Funny. Im seeing very few in hopkins county.

Been seeing a few on an indicator pond by my job. SE of Houston. Coastal area. Can't make out what they are. Maybe tomorrow I'll stop and glass them.

Been scouting a fair amount lately.

If cormorants were legal the party would be on.

Spent some time in the woods this weekend. Lots of wood ducks few gadwall seen.

Saw several groups flying tonight. Quite a few dove too.

saw two big groups circling a large pond in Parker county yesterday(100 ~ total). Also saw a decent group off in the distance, and another small group of red heads in Palo Pinto County on Friday while fishing. May have come in with the front last Thursday.

Saw group of 80+ green-winged teal NW of Austin about two weeks ago. Been to busy to make it out to the area recently. Unfortunately a few days after teal season ended.

Saw a group of about 20 fly over me on my way to work this morning, went and scouted a couple new tanks I got access to this year this weekend, the 14th can't come soon enough!

Little birdie told me the prairie is loaded. Earliest ever to have that many birds.

We've got a pretty major cold front coming in this weekend into next week. Should get down into teens up here so we may have some smaller waters freeze up and send some ducks your way.

seen hundreds going to roost on a large WMA from from my bow stand

Well, the "ducks" that I saw by my work were in fact Coots. Lol. I stopped and looked through the binoculars today. They'll be here soon enough though. It's a great indicator pond.
