That ain't nearly all of them, but yes, they're on the move. There is a snow goose migration group on Facebook. The videos started rolling in from Illinois, Missouri, and now Arkansas over the last 3 days. The specks made their move in October. The light geese this early tells me it may be a good winter.

Specks have been in NEA for a month. Snows are showing up big time which is really early compared to previous years. Anyone that has water up here is loaded with ducks. All the WMA’s are dry, and won’t start holding water till the 15 of this month. The rivers are all low. Will need a lot of rain before public land comes into play.

We have a field that we are having to run the geese off of at least twice a day. Have had thousands of specks for several weeks now. I'll get buzzed by ducks while deer hunting several times per hunt.

We have been holding decent wads of Specs in SE TX too. A few pockets of Snows but not many until the last few days when wave after wave have been coming down. I guess it must be pretty damn nippy up in Canada and the Dakotas to get the Snows moving this early.

NE LA is also holding decent numbers of Specs too and a pretty good concentration of ducks in fields that have already been flooded. I imagine Wham Brake is loaded up. Would not be surprised if Catahoula is wrapped up too.

my oldest is going out Saturday morning for youth hunting and he will probably be limited out in a matter of minutes....and it will be the best hunt of the year.

This season looks like it could start strong. Forbes Biological Station is reporting some huge counts in Illinois and Mississippi River valley in the middle states for this time of year. Their last count is the 3rd highest in their history. Swan Lake up there is holding 325K birds including 65K gadwalls. Missouri has started hot and birds should be piling in with these fronts prior to the 18th opener in south Arkansas and East zone. Coastal guys should see a lot of birds this weekend I'm sure.

I think I saw some in Raceland Sunday, may have been a flock of seagulls though. I'm not sure.
