It's so hot the weaker dives are falling from the sky and are nothing but ash by the time they hit the ground..

From what I've seen and heard, there are quite a few dove in the Wichita Falls area right now. If we don't get some rain though, I don't think they'll have any reason to stay here. Hard to live off of rocks and no water. Only time will tell if they'll be here in 22 more days.

I have a field outside of Miles, which is about 15 miles from San Angelo. Whitewing numbers are unreal. It has irrigated milo, sunflowers, wheat and water. It should be fast action. www.twistedwillowhunts.com

Do not come to West Texas. We have no water, no feed, NO standing crops of any kind. I do not know what birds that migrate through will do, honestly, there is NOTHING here.
Thanks and Gig'em

I wonder if this drought would change their migration pattern/route? However, how else are they going to get to south Texas and Mexico?
