General bird seasons ended yesterday (27th) here in the PacNW.
We got fewer waterfowl than usual, but more upland than usual.
Our total take for the year (Upland + Waterfowl) was one less bird than last season.
How was yours?
Sunday the 27th was the last day for Waterfowl Season here in WA.
That morning, we took 6 Greenies (wife 3 --- me 3). Early in the afternoon, I got two more drakes.
For the last 2 hours of the season, we just sat in the blinds and watched the birds, without firing a shot. We figured that if they made it to within 2 hours of closure, that they deserved to live and make some babies.
