I have seen many large flocks coming over in the past week. They are definitely arriving in mass.

They started coming up the Columbia in large flocks this past week. Seems there are many more than usual for this time of year from Vancouver to Cathlamet.

I have been seeing large flocks daily.  I could also hear them flying over the house last night.  The migration has started!

I have seen thousands of Cacklers in Sequim; and few Specks and Greaters. About a hundred in a flock and moving all day long.  :twocents:

I saw tons flying across the peninsula (Sequim/PA) last week.  I almost pulled off the highway to look, it had been a while since seeing so many.

I didn't make it out.  I ended up assisting my daughter with her Halloween costume.  Then I saw that same buck and does on the hill so we did a little stalk on them.  She loved it. By the time we cam back down it was time to go to school. 

I am going to do some scouting for deer this weekend and I have a definate plan for some goose hunting on Wednesday with my father in law.
