6 weeks, 10 dabbling ducks

.. and 1 shoveler for the length of next year's gamebird season. Yesterday was AWF&G's November meeting followed by the AGM. Councilors Reardon and Carey who represent the remotest northern and southern ward of the region pushed for regionalised limits on game birds. Yet again the "too hard" agument came back, but honestly, its not, just requires some database changes and more volunteers. Funnily enough I work with databases. Yup they can be expensive to change and maintain, but not that expensive... so we can do that. The gamebird management group is gathering pace but funding will no doubt slow progress there. But overall it was a reasonably progressive meeting.

For those with short memories and who are prone to yelling about the game birds regs - last year we had a 6 dabbling duck per day 7 week season.

Things are moving slowly, but they are moving.
