Goose seasons fast approaching what's everyone seeing.
Going to get out tomorrow or Monday for a look around but thinking birds aren't moving yet.
Hoping to find something for Thursday and friday.

just got off phone with my buddy up north who I will be hunting with for the first 3 days or so. He said he has seen couple hundred birds in the fields we have permission to hunt. Can't wait just got back from the gun club where I sighted in the shotgun and a couple boxes of shells with the dog at my feet.

So got out for a look around this morning. Plan was to drive until I find something for Thursday. Loop planned was a drive up the east side of Simcoe over to Barrie than across to shelburne down to the west side of Orangeville than home hitting the old haunts till I find a spot. Well the east side looked meager as most of the fields are corn and soy and the few grain fields already chiesled. A few birds seen with a small flock on the south side of Brechin. Needless to say a little disappointed but had to press on. Checked in at Barrie and found a couple of barley fields that quite honestly have me bit worried as there is so much grain in the field that it looks baited. As I was studing the field something caught my eye on the neighbours property. Went for a look and found them.

Drove back to the first place to see if the farmer could put in a good word for me with his neighbour. Hope I don't jinx myself but Thursday gonna be interesting.
Thing is this field looks like it was harvested with a vacuum with hardly a blade of grass to hide behind.
Can never figure out geese nothing in a field carpeted with grain yet the mother load on a manicured plot.

I'm just outside of North Bay and for the last 2-3 weeks have seen flocks of geese flying North.
Should they be flying North at this time of year??

When deer hunting in November, we often see hundreds flying South.

Are they just late getting up here??
