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

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.

I thought the same about my place but then we started walking across the field and they started showing themselves

I saw the most I've ever seen near me while scouting Saturday. Hoping they stayed around for this weekend

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.
