I’ve been stuck in court the last two days, and tomorrow doesn’t look any better.  On the plus side, I spoke to two different people who each said they saw migratory geese yesterday.  We’re only 10 days from the opening day of the Eastern Kansas and Missouri North Zone duck seasons so it’s good to hear that the birds are finally moving.  Generally around here the opening weekend is fun shoot, but it’s all little ducks.  Woodies, teal, gadwall, and widgeon make up the usual early season bag.  Generally it’s good for a pass-shoot or two and then all the ducks are blown out.  After that we wait patiently for what my dad calls the “RDS” or Real Duck Season, meaning that it gets cold enough to move the mallards down.
