    kinda makes regional limits make even less sense when you see how far they travel

    You're right Prattpoint; trouble with limit setting is that to make the Gazette, the limits have to be in to Min of Conservation by mid Feb for approval; so if any time after that there's an outbreak of disease, or a big drought, or a tidal wave that downs a zillion ducks then the limits per region are still the limits. (F&G councils do have some powers to change conditions in special circumstances but imagine the nightmare scenario of trying to advise 35,000 people that things have changed.....)

    Well I went from F&G fb page to doc back to F&G and they don't release it because it cost heaps and may get misused in the wrong hands.

    bit of a bugger I was keen to see where birds tend to go, see if I can find any patterns and stuff but never mind
