Flooded Corn Roost

Typical of many years, the ducks continue to hang around the area in mass numbers weeks after the season has ended.  At least we got to enjoy a week of hunting this before the season closed.  This just gives us a little more encouragement that flooding standing corn was worth it, and we will continue to keep trying to improve the habitat to see sights like this (hopefully moreso during season if the weather and ducks cooperate!).

The ears of corn are stripped clean, but they continue to hang around and use the field as a roost and feed on what waste grain and invertebrates are left.  Jason went down a couple times this past week and took some pictures and video of what was hanging around.
