My two Boys, live and Farm near Tama/Toledo Iowa. They, like me, hunt every day they can. They say the Iowa Population of birds has been declining for years. We hunted Nebraska Saturday/Sunday and prolly will today again if I get some work done first. Lots of Birds. Problem is, like everywhere in this area, crops are still in. We have only taken out a small amount of Corn and almost no milo. Water standing every place.Good news is, a lot of Mallards on our playas. We expect a great bird season here.........
