They are starting to form some large flocks already..

Those are only the resident geese. The northern birds still have not started to move yet.

I'm chomping at the bit! There's 400 geese every night in our back wheat field. Another 200-300 landing in another seeded down wheat field across the road. If they are gone by saturday I'm going to lose it! LOL

Holy crap man you sure like to spew just that..........crap........we killed 7 bands in the early season, 4 on opening day, all from James bay except one was a molt migrant from Michigan which was in with the northern birds (do you know what a molt migrant is without googling it???). Here is a news flash for you......geese from the north are all lessers and smaller than the birds that breed in our area which includes Ohio birds........there is another sub-species of goose from the north called giants which are even bigger than our locals but not many come through Ontario.Quote:

You have had your tail in a knot since I found that Meme on Pinterest.
Not sure why you would take something like that so personal.
Oh I was wondering. Could you tell me the spot of your's I am said to have stolen. You did say I "STOLE" your spot in one of your posts.
Few flocks starting to land in the fields in Russell.

Any dumbass can look out their window and see geese migrating almost every day right now. To say theres nothing but residents is ridiculous.
S.
I was in town yesterday afternoon and the geese were flying, just over the hydro lines and dropping in on the lawns of the factories.
It was rather maddening to see them there , lots of them, instead of out in the country, they are getting " cityfied " I guess they know where they are safe.
Hopefully, they will be out in the country as soon as the framers start combining corn and the geese will take on some fat and taste better because as of now and the early season which I and others pass on as the goose flesh has no flavour because they have been and still are eating mainly grass off the freshly mowed lawns of factories and golf courses.
However , it may be some time yet for the corn to ripen as it is still very green and cobs not fully formed, also the soy beans around here are a couple of weeks away from maturing.
There are quite a few of us that don't get into goose hunting till we come back after moose hunting the end of Oct. but we do go after ducks which seem plentiful around here.
Some large flocks have flown south on Lake Erie
I have a friend who has a beautiful pasture with a ravine in center 300-400 geese every morning and night. But his new wife is anti hunt.
He could always look for a newer wife that is not an anti hunter!Quote:
