None those trips bit I was out at ogden bay last night and seen alot flying everywhere. I guarantee you can shoot a swan when harold crane is nearly frozen you just have too time it perfect and they'll be ten feet off the ground.

I have the birds routine figured out. They'll leave this spot in the morning and trickle back in around 12ish so lucky for me I get too sleep in a little.

Today on the north end was 3 groups of 8 Swans 2 groups flew off around 2:00,left that area before the third got up. Several flocks were flying tonight around 4:30,Crazy what a couple days makes. I wish I had a swan permit tonight,Had 3 fly over my head,low. Duck hunting was slow-Blue bird day, but got better when the clouds rolled.
Just want to send out a big middle finger to those duck hunters that are leaving empty shells all over the dikes. PIGS! PICK UP AFTER YOURSELFS! I picked up a bunch tonight.
