re: Flyway Federation of Louisiana?

He is fighting a losing battle. There is no way that hunters up north will ever agree to stop using ice eaters and other methods to kill birds. It sucks for us in La., but greed and money have joined forces to enable those Yankees to short-stop ducks the same way they did Canada Geese. Specklebellies are now following the same pattern. We in La. will still kill early migrants, but Mallard hunting is now basically finished except for extreme cold weather events. What we can do is stop all donations to groups that create habitat for any purpose other than on the breeding grounds. I for one will not donate money to a group that spends large amounts of money on private property to create hunting opportunities for a select few in the name of creating "Wintering habitat". For those who wish to continue doing so, that is your business.
