For you duck hunters who are on twitter you can follow http://twitter.com/waterfowlercom and get updates on the migration of waterfowl i.e., a report from today... Ducks are on the move in the Central Flyway. The first heavy flights of birds were reported in MT, ND and SD over the past 24 hours. For any non-twitter fans you can check out their home page.... http://www.waterfowler.com/inportal/index.php |

You may want to give it another week or so. It is 66 degrees in coastal NH right now. There are no frozen bodies of water. The beaver ponds and all open. I bet a few woods ducks will be added to someones bag when our late coastal season opens. Looking forward to this month and next for our late goose season here. We need the local ponds to freeze to make field hunting the best. Good luck to all you duck commanders. |

long long way from ND SD and MT to the places I frequent. I will say that the next few days of artic air should move some eastern birds as well but the truth is that you just have no idea when ducks will move unless it gets in to single digits, with heavy snow cover, in all of new england and Pa and Ohio...now if that happens you might want to go duck shooting as opposed to the ususal duck hunting . 2 cts |

It is a winter wonderland here now. We got about 8 inches of snow yesterday that got beat down to 4 by ending in heavy rain. It won't be long. They are predicting 19 degrees tonight, 16 tomorrow night and 18 degrees Saturday night. Only the fast moving rivers and big ponds and lakes will have open water. The ducks will be heading south soon. |

Barely anything with webbed feet in the best spots I have so far . . . |

15 degrees here now with a NW wind at 15-20 mph. The only open water left is the big lakes, fast moving rivers and salt water. The sky should be black with ducks and geese in VA soon. PM, Have Max retrieve one for Bay. |
