Must have had a lot of rain all over the prairies - even in Canada. My Brother went to an area on the Alberta prairie where the two of us used to hunt back in the 80's and it was like being in duck hunters heaven. But He Said - " this year, with all the rain they got there are little ponds everywhere and the birds were scattered all over creation and the shooting was lousy at our old spot." We hunted during drought years and the birds were concentrated in the small lakes we found.
