I'm seeing and hearing mostly males. I am glad they're back. I like the birds, except when my fruits close to ripe until harvest. Keith

They just spend most of their time in the woods during winter, usually in good sized flocks. You got me curious as ive never seen them in northern michigan during winter months. I checked maps online and it does not show them wintering in far northern areas. They would be real easy to spot in flocks in the woods if they were in fact present. Where are you getting your information..? Last edited by midlander; 03/02/22 09:00 PM. Reason: .

No sandhills yet either. Canadas are starting to pair up . Member -W.T.A. N.T.A. - N.R. A. A Shotgun. A Rifle and a 4 Wheel Drive.. A Country Boy. Will Survive
