Title: Nisqually Delta ( wheres the ducks? )
Post by: iRem on October 08, 2011, 09:34:16 PM

I drive up and down the I-5 corridor every day and I have not seen much for Ducks! :bash: :bash: Ive been in the area at all times of the day and plan on being on the water for the opener!  :IBCOOL: Any body seen much in the way of ducks.

I have only seen a few ducks, but will be looking more closely tommorow.

I was out there a few weeks back but didn't see a lot as far as birds go. I feel like the year before there were bunches more.  :dunno:

When did they bust through the dike(s)? I don't follow it much but I've heard that didn't do the ducks in the area any favors.

I was down at the reserve on Wednesday and there is barely any standing water in the fields, and not many ducks at all. We needs lots of rain!

Yeah I would agree Crispy, lots more ducks in the air and standing water last year. I haven't seen much in the way of geese as of late either, and yes we need rain. I sure would like to hear what you guys see in the next few days as I will be on the water first thing Saturday!
