Coming up on that time of year where the spring rains lead to frequent flooding. Dad and I went down to check on the pipes, stoplogs, and flap gates during the last flood to make sure the timber and west field would drain, and east field hold water. Attempted to drain the fields to mow down the corn before the floods hit but never got close to dry enough. The majority of the migration has already moved through, but still saw plenty of ducks.
Hope we can avoid any major flooding this year to give our local turkey population a little break. Just over a week to go for turkey season! As the forecast stands now, good chance the river will be out of its banks for the opener but we will somehow manage as we do just about every year.
