I'm gonna try to mess with a bird in the morning, but my expectations aren't very high. When I did my scouting the birds will still very low and there was still a lot of snow which means that the hunters will be very concentrated.
Who said the hens are nesting already? What does that mean, to you? To me, nesting means they are laying eggs and that might be the case, depending on where you are. Some may be laying eggs already, but not most of the hens in the areas where I hunt. If you mean they are setting on a nest, I say NO WAY!. I'd be pretty surprised if they were setting on nests already. From what I can tell the birds are about 1-2 weeks behind normal and the birds around here don't go to setting until almost May.
Good luck, guys.
