2010 - 2011 Season: Migration Reporting Contest

Duck Junkies is proud to present our new migration map!

The map content consist of many professional resources and companies, but most importantly YOU.

All registered users may view and add reports to the map. So invite all your waterfowl hunting friends, Facebook friends, family and get involved in the migration map!

Here is the contest.

Throughout the season we will be tracking the flyway with the most activity and reports on our migration map. The flyway with the most activity will win part one of the contest.

Part two: We will randomly select 1 member from that flyway, not a Staff member, Guide Service or Duck club, to win a prize valued at $150.00.

So again, I encourage you to invite your friends, or any resource that will help your flyway, to join in. Together we can create the best migration map on the internet and did I mention it is FREE!.

Don't forget to join your flyway group in the community and encourage each other! Good Luck!

Migrating North

Hey all! I'm new to the Pro Staff and can't wait to get to know everyone....Give you a little background on myself I am from Central Indiana and attend Purdue University. Do most my hunting on the Wabash River and its exciting but a little bittersweet to see the amounts of birds that are in the area right now! The birds are definitely on their way back North. The river and local ponds are COVERED in birds right now. Too bad it wasn't this way all season for us here in Indiana. Seeing a lot of mallards, geese, teal, mergansers, goldeneyes, ring necks, wigeons, and a few others here and there. Definitely makes for a lot of good pictures!

Mallard Migration Status

Even though duck season is over for some of us, the season is still open for our fellow hunters to the south! Good luck guys (and gals!).

Every week, over 100 biologists, wildlife managers and other experts rank the progress of mallard migration in their areas.

Check out the link: http://www.mdc.mo.gov/hunt/wtrfowl/migration.php

These rankings do not depict mallard abundance; they indicate the relative progression of the fall migration. Estimated peak numbers of mallards may be lower or higher than average numbers during previous years due to annual variations in local wetland and environmental conditions. As a result, a dark color does not necessarily mean that lots of mallards are present in that region

These maps depict real time estimates of migration without the benefit of waiting until the completion of migration before providing assessments. Some variation in results may also occur depending on the number of experts reporting for a given week.
