Kansas wildlife planners report strong upland bird prospects for the upcoming season. Mild winter, favorable cover, and good nesting across pheasants quail and lesser prairie chickens boost expectations, though western water conditions are dry with some areas short on water. Duck and goose outlooks vary by region with rivers and private ground likely yielding better shooting than public marshes.
