 Recent waterfowl hunters reported that Stillwater conditions were initially slow, althought there were plenty of birds in the big lakes.  Bird movement started when weather conditions changed early last week. Thereare reportedly plenty of widgeon, teal, and mallards in the area.  Also, for you Nevada swan tag holders, big groups of swans were spotted as well.
