Our sunflower field in northern Anderson county is normally covered with migrators by now. I checked it the other day and I didn't see a dove. What are y'all seeing?

Wheat
half ass spread sort of germinating wheat with mostly dirt like substrate under it
Ugh. Stupid people piss me off.
The dove population is way down.......for those that haven't been paying attention.

Ghost town at club in Williston.
Zero in my field Spartanburg County and Zero in my dad's field in York County.
It's like quail and ducks in the Upstate, I think they evaporated or something.
Nothing. Zero. Nada. Have lots of corn still standing and late broadcast wheat that's looking good. No birds.

Mowed and burnt sorghum and millet last week. And I’ve seen maybe a dozen birds in the field since. South Western Kershaw County.

The very existence of flame-throwers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done.
I disced, mowed and prayed over corn, sunflowers and wheat.
Nothing
Either write things worth reading, or do things worth writing.
so much for the ad nauseum repeated half truth about "so many dove fields have spread the birds out"?
Ugh. Stupid people piss me off.
Sunflowers and plenty of fresh corn on the ground in my dove field and no birds in Dorchester. I flushed maybe thirty birds out of the big, adjacent cut corn field that is fairly spent and full of wilted volunteer corn plants.
My club on Wadmalaw didn't hunt last Saturday due to no bird report but someone saw maybe 50 birds this week while bush hogging so we're going to give it a try this Saturday.
y’all didn’t spray enough paraquat during the mating and brooding season.

Plenty in our wheat food plot planted a couple weeks ago. Also plenty at the deer feeders too.
Probably a stupid question but the dove population has seemed to ebb and flow over the last several years. Is it as simple as bad weather/storms during nesting season causing a bad hatch? Over harvest? Is there a belief that there could be an underlying reproductive issue? There are definitely more dove fields around and corn piles have always been prevelent in our neck of the woods. Not sure they're having the effect I once believed they did.
The internet taught everyone how to grow sunflowers
