The 2015 Waterfowl Season Primer
Powered by Stone Road Media
While some unseasonable warm weather are currently gripping some of the Midwest bringing above average temperatures, high humidity, and soon heavy rains it won’t be long until the winds will change. It’s time for our 2015 – 16 waterfowl primer.
For our 2015 season primer we will start by looking at the current waterfowl populations and breeding activity and what that means for duck hunting and goose hunting opportunities this fall. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services recently released the results of their breeding bird’s surveys and despite continued habitat loss in the high plains either due to dry conditions or habitat conversion, waterfowl numbers remain high and are similar to last year’s numbers. This year’s count show the breeding bird numbers at 49.5 million breeding birds which is extremely exciting if you love to pull the trigger of waterfowl as much as we do!
