Lots and Lots of Rain.


The Ohio River is above minor flood stage and rising. Expected crest is Jan.
4th, just 3 feet short of Moderate Stage.
The 268 River slough is flooded from the river overflow. Access to Horseshoe
Road is cut off by the rising river.



Lots of water at the Sloughs WMA.


No Tundra Swans seen. Maybe I got there late due oversleeping.

Eagle numbers down. Again maybe I got there late.

Geese numbers down.

Duck numbers & variety down.
