"Mostly green-wings with mostly grays for big ducks. Said they had plenty of good green-wing mornings on southerly or easterly winds. So that's where a lot of the teal apparently were.
Also apparently where the poule d'eau were, too, as I saw more of them still there this mid March morning than in our marsh this winter.

Yours was one of the season's precious few full limit days and probably our last of a 1.3 per second split. Take a big bow.

That's about the only part we can count on getting better over the years. Well, generally.

What's the observation trend at the mudhole in, say last 5-7 years ? I recall waves of them in Jan 2012 visit there, just one (nice) bunch in Dec 2019. Don't think I've taken many, if any, in between those trips.
