2008 fall waterfowl hunting

September 28, 2008 by

Our bird hunting is underway! We have our first week behind us and once again we were surprised with the species of birds and numbers. The fall is showing a bit later of a migration with what i believe is a push of northern birds to come. The temps up north are favorable and we are seeing the numbers of birds as a result. The first part of last week was a bit slow by our standards but still good as far as hunting goes.

The later part of the week showed many more birds and different species much more like we are used to. This week will tell more and tomorrow will tell the tale when the hunters come in. I pay close attention to the weather in the north and it is showing cold wet conditions but no snow yet.

Still i believe we will see more birds soon. I like to see huge rafts of divers and smaller flocks throughout the day. We have a large group here this week and i think the report will be very good. I will post pictures once i resize them. We had a few fantastic shoots last week and even some greater Canada Goose hunts, full limits. We also taped a few hunts for a promotional DVD we will have available for prospective customers. It was professionally done showing all of our facilties, equipment, hunting, staff, lodge, etc.
Well one thing for sure, we always know when the peak of the migrations happens after it is over.
Stay tuned for more reports,

Good hunting.
