The odd thing is that the lease is managed pretty much exclusively for trophy deer. They'll clear overgrown brush in places and that benefits the birds, and they scatter supplemental feed on the roads (some corn, mostly milo) and that benefits the birds as well, but it's all done with deer in mind.<br /><br />The land is about 15-20 miles from the coast and they get something they call a 'marine layer' of moisture at night. I've never heard of it but there is heavy dew every morning, so I guess that's what has helped the birds survive such a drought. I know a family that hunts about an hour west that has called off all bird hunting this year to hopefully ensure carryover stock.Mark Colemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00105837142551567890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3568087049707971913.post-69793891101976519792011-11-16T08:15:56.577-05:002011-11-16T08:15:56.577-05:00Holy cow!
