Dry, warm weather hindering things for Minnesota bird hunters

For bird hunters across Minnesota, whether they’re chasing ducks, ruffed grouse, or pheasants, the weather has defined much of the season so far.
With strong southerly winds and temperatures routinely in the 70s, the duck migration has been almost nonexistent, aside from some “calendar migrants” such as ring-necked ducks moving through the state. Parched uplands and forests – save some parts of the Arrowhead region – are the norm, as are receding wetlands, shallow lakes, and river systems.
