It was opening day of the first part of waterfowl season for the South Zone Guy. Open until next Saturday, closes and then reopens November 23 and closes January 23, 2025. I wouldn't worry about wearing blaze orange unless you look or walk like a duck.We decided to go to Deep Run today and stopped a mile from there to look at something and heard 2 shogun blasts in that direction. When we arrive vehicles were parked there so we left. Hunters were all over today. We found a place we felt they would not be at and explored. Make sure you wear orange.

I hunted back here this morning with one of my son’s friends. I like a challenge and I usually hunt the stream. The bog is way too busy on opening day. It was a beautiful and quiet morning and while I was setting a few decoys under the moonlight, a Barred Owl was sounding off in the distance. There was still a half hour until legal shooting time so I just sat on the bank with my boots in the water and enjoyed the show.On our way down Hampton Road from 206 we crossed one of the small bridges and it was full of ducks near it and I saw them splashing as we crossed. I backed up over the bridge and they flew. However, they took off and flew in the direction of Deep Run and then we heard shooting. Yikes!
Just wait and see what tomorrow’s map looks like. I think it will adjust more than people would think.View attachment 23607

Looking at the larger map, I'm located just South of the Severe Drought area. Makes sense, because it's dry but I'm not seeing the kind of extreme effects others have posted about.
My wife went for a walk this morning and got soaked. She said it rained really hard for a short while. However, our rain gauge shows nothing.

Nothing here but some dark clouds in the morning.
