I have to agree with Brainard about the water. I was at the Sloughs WMA this morning. Pond Creek Marsh water is like Spring levels. Shorebird Unit (95% high weeds) is flooded like early Spring. Muddy Slough is flooded. Only shorebird I saw was a single Solitary Sandpiper. But include me in any trip to Union Co. this Friday. Charlie Henderson Co.
