Or are you insinuating something else?

I used to hunt with an old farmer whose favorite saying was "every year is different son", maybe he knew a thing or two after 35 years.

I have 2 theories on this.
> one goes back to the mid-1900's and the aggressive expansion in building reservoirs where there may have been very little if any waterfowl habitat. There are thousands of lakes from small to large that were not previously available for ducks, especially in our Mississippi Flyway.
> Once duck hunting hit the modern era from VCR tapes to YouTube, etc., landowners/farmers saw the profit available in pursuit of good hunting land and adapted their farming/management methods for maximum profit.

Do you think global warming is causing the ducks to winter further north?

Man made global Warming is BS. Even if we are currently 1 degree warmer than 50-100 years ago, 1 degree?
I woke up this morning and it was 47 degrees. This afternoon it was 65. Does our earth change if today was 48 and 66 or 46 and 54?

Tomorrow is going to be warmer than today. The Horror. LOL
