Blue-winged Teal Begin Southward Migration Across Iowa
Blue-winged teal, the first waterfowl to head south each year, were spotted last week in lakes and marshes across Iowa. State Conservation Commission officials say they are a week or two late and may move on if cool weather lasts. Large flocks are reported in Minnesota. The birds linger in shallow waters before moving on, sometimes disappearing by October, or lingering into November. They winter as far south as Brazil and Northern Chile, rarely north of Louisiana and Texas in winter. Iowa’s 30 day duck season starts October 21 and the goose season runs for 60 days starting October 1. Many lawns show poor color due to soil nutrients.
