DU central flyway update this week:
"The most recent survey of waterfowl on the Missouri River had around 750,000 mallards and just over 300,000 Canada geese using those waters in the central part of the state," says Rocco Murano, chief waterfowl biologist with the South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks. "There are still a large number of both ducks and geese using the pothole country of eastern South Dakota as well."
It's a good news-bad news situation for those hunters further down the flyway waiting for the migration to hit high gear. The good news: there are lots of ducks and geese yet to wing their way south. The bad news: they might not be going anywhere anytime soon.

Sure hope so - it's like they say in the article, let's hope for a good northern freeze accompanied by crop-covering snow

Probably February 1 
Don't let your ears hear what your eyes didn't see, and don't let your mouth say what your heart doesn't feel

Ducks will not migrate one inch farther south after the Winter Solstice. After that the Days start getting longer and they think about going north and breeding only.
That day this Year is December 21st
