It sounds like not everyone is following hunting regulations. If anyone is curious about waterfowl hunting seasons, regulations, bag limits, etc see the link.
Prohibited: "driving, rallying or chasing birds with any motorized conveyance or any sailboat to put them in the range of hunters." http://www.dec.ny.gov/docs/wildlife_pdf/wfregsguide13.pdf I have had similar thoughts about the various issues of doing a bird count during duck hunting season. Perhaps I will wear blaze orange when counting on the lake shore. Good luck to all bird counters. > On Dec 29, 2013, at 5:07 PM, "Kenneth V.
