I have lived on the Diversion for 20 years, on my second home for the last 14 years. My master has a raised porch about 30’ off the ground and I can see a long way at dusk. 10 years ago I could see 100 ducks mainly wood ducks at dusk during hunting season, perhaps 200-250 after a cold front. Today, I am lucky to see a dozen. The lack of new water to replenish the swamp, combined with savania has made the ducks move on from this area
When I was little we'd get to the blind on Catahoula while it was still dark and wait for shooting hours and the first gunshot would raise what had to be thousands of ducks. It is pretty crazy seeing that many birds, look like mosquitoes around a light bulb. Now you might see ten raise up and take off. The whole state seems to be going down hill.
