Oldsquaw, er, I mean long-tailed ducks....

Saw the first one of the year last Thursday, and six more today.  Seems earlier than usual as I don't recall seeing them until December in the past.  Had 48 hooded mergansers swim by Friday, and have been seeing more buffleheads, scoters, and mallards.

Good luck to all the sea duck hunters.

IMHO is has not seemed like a stormier/colder fall this year..... Must be a colder start up north.....?

Heard there are some here already, should be a good year. GOing scouting/hunting this weekend in a new area.

OLDSQUAW!!!!   No such thing as a "longtail"

Cut that PC stuff out.  It's not funny.

Saw two flocks of 30+ buffleheads this morning between the islands.
