I like this whole topic of duck migration because it pits (in a very friendly way) one group of experts against another group. It has ties into biology, common sense, history (some of which is passionately familial) as well as the Black OPS drama of unseemly government intervention.
So I have another fun topic for all of us who stand, butt-deep in ice water looking UP and suggest that, for the sake of this topic, we take a moment and look DOWN. I live and hunt in the Great Lakes area, have done so most of my life and as you probably know, the water levels in the Lakes has been historically low the past 15 years or so which extends past its normal up and down cycle. Now when you take the surface area of the five Great Lakes and multiply that by the 30" or so that it is currently down, that is a freakin' LOT of water that seems to have just up and disappeared
If it evaporated then I am fine with that, but it had to precipitate somewhere too didn't it?
(Here it comes)
I accuse the state of Indiana of stealing it thru that little patch of land between Michigan City and East Chicago.
There I've said it.
And Illinois is secretly robbing Lake Michigan thru the Chicago River and selling it as "plain water" to the entire SE section of the U.S all the way to Southern California. Am I leaving anyone out?
Whatdya know about FRESH water Steve? Huh?
