It seems as if in my area of Ohio, the big flights have not come down yet. Seeing many pairs and a few small grps. of 3-8 birds, but not the large grps. yet. I did have a unigue experience on the second weekend. The State has an area where they planted large areas of sunflowers and the birds were definitely there! But, you drew for a position in the field and that is where you stayed. Nothing wrong with that! But, some of the clowns in the field think nothing of shooting at birds 100yds. out, shooting birds that are directly over your head even though they the shooter, are 75ds away. I even had other hunters, shooting at the birds that were flaring into my decoys. I probably won't do it again, but if I do, I will wear a flak jacket and helmet. :-)
