This morning, it was 58 & overcast with no wind. I got to my parking spot earlier than I planned & was going to wait 10-15 minutes before heading to the woods but that little voice in my head said to go now & I always listen to the little voice in my head. So, when Garden Party ended, I walked along the water way & across the field during which time the weather started to Play with Misty rain. For Me, it didn’t matter much as my blind will Keep the Raindrops From Falling On My Head as well as the rest of me. By the time I got in the blind, it had started to sprinkle. The wind pick up a little & the temp dropped quickly. I was hoping that any birds in the neighborhood would come out into the fields & maybe let me work them. Alas & alack, it was not to be, but the geese & roosters fired up early as did a few crows.
It rained off & on from 6:00 until about 9:30. When it let up, the song birds finally came out. At 10:00 it came down heavy & steady for 45 minutes. After it stopped, the birds came back but the only other sound I heard was a calf at the dairy farm SE of me, bawling for its Momma.
It sprinkled off & on &, when a break came at about 11:30, I headed to the truck. It started up just as I got there. The temp had dropped to 48.
It’s back to the swamp woods in the morning. Hopefully the birds will start working soon.
