    Are the widgeon here yet?

    first things first: has anyone seen the huge roosting flocks out by the ferry terminal in Tsawassen yet? (if they are here, please let me know!, i havent been out that way since august)

    secondly:
    sure i've seen them around, and hell i've shot a couple already, but i was just wondering if anyone has seen the big flocks come into the grass fields to graze. i think the fields have to flood first before they really consider it,

    Any thoughts?
