My fingers sent the goose message before I was finished typing. I had a flock of about 1500 Pintails along the South Service Rd east of Bainsville. The birds were at the back of a field near the water and adjacent to a small pumphouse (small square building). Some would lift off, almost hover in the very strong headwind, and drop back down. Bainsville is east of Lancaster. If birds are still there be careful of the dirt road to the pumphouse. The road is soft and the puddles very deep. If the birds have left they may be in other fields north of there. Many fields are flooded.
