Cloudy, Occassional Rain Showers – 40-45 Degrees
first weekend was pretty good. Shot mallards, teal and wood ducks. Not a ton of birds but enough to fill limts easily. Saturday and Sunday shot 20ducks and 3 geese. Hunted a pothole on Wednesday and killed 14 mallards, widgeon, teal and gadwall. First light we were covered with mallards, to early to shoot. Stood up and shood them away, they trickled back in. Wouldnt decoy very well lots of pass shooting. Great 3 hunts so far, probablly have to wait till Halloween for a good push of birds to come down.

Any geese left up there? Just wondering if we can expect any more geese to show up in Wy or northern Colo? We have had a good number of little geese but not many big ones, just curious if there still there or passed us by.

I know there’s people hunting, good numbers of birds too. But nobody’s talking.

Anyone still hunting out there, seems like the Mt. duck hunters have left the web site.

Cloudy, Light Rain & Drizzle – 35-40 Degrees
Finally some new birds showing up. Early migrators, spoonys, teal, widgeon, sprig. Not huge numbers of northern mallards. Swans are down, which means big weather is on it’s way.
Anyone else posting out there?

City limits of Missoula 09-11-2007 11:12
Sunny & Clear, Winds Calm – Over 70 Degrees
Missoula used to have a kid’s fish pond off of 39th Street on the south side of town. The fish pond has long since moved but the pond has become a fairly productive wetland – there were seven or eight mallard broods in evidence this summer, maybe more and a pair of geese fledged five goslings. The pond is also a magnet for staging birds, especially mallards in spring and fall. Once the hunting season starts especially, the evening flight of hundreds of mallards coming into roost at sunset is thrilling.

Periodically someone will drop off a domestic duck or two, usually right after easter. Because people regularly feed the ducks and the pond despite signs urging them not to, these domoestics manage to overwinter even when everything is frozen tight. For the last year or so, we’ve had a big ugly white thing – a pekin, I think – and he’s left his mark. There’s a late brood of mallards using what’s left of the pond that includes a couple of mostly white birds. This morning, I ran the dog through the flock, and yes, the white ones could fly.

Its time to do our duty, boys. We don’t need these domestic crosses making it through the hunting season and polluting the wild gene pool any more. So if a white mallard comes into your dekes, you know where he came from. Take ’em.
