Nice to hear that. It's slim to none in the southern part of the state. Too many flooding rains during nesting season this year.

All the hens who visit my property are poultless. The two who hang out on my parent's property have lots of poults.

Last year they had a hen with newly hatched chicks at the end of August.

Some hens do better than others.  This picture from a south Florida WMA.   This area had a very dry nesting season but is getting rain now.

A friend just spotted a hen with about 6-7 poults. They were around a week old.

So far, I've seen a couple of hens running together with around 8 to 10 poults. Poults were able to fly abit. My brother saw hen and 4 poults mid May. Real early for our neck of the woods...

Seen a hen with polts on the side of the hwy in northern Minn last week.

 They are starting to mow the right of ways now so expect I'll be seeing more of them in my travels to a from the cabin.

Doesn't appear the farmers are mowing hay yet but expect it will happen soon enough once the weather dries out a bit.

First cut on most fields around here. 8 poults sighted in about 64ish square miles. Not many this year and I put on a lot of miles. I know there are more, numbers just way down. I hope it's just more in the woods. Z

I have hens with poults here and a number of hens without. Typical for here. I would say over the years that 3 out of 10 hens have poults at my place. I wish it was more but that's pretty Ty consistent every year.

We are getting hammered by wet weather this spring up here in Mn. Hopefully it dries out and we have a better outcome this spring than I'm expecting.
