I played golf yesterday on a course west of Nicolaus. It's located right next to the Lower Feather River just before it dumps into the Sac. After the game my friend and I drove down the river road to the mouth and then back across the farm land to Lincoln. The river was so low there were exposed sand bars that went almost all the way across the river in places. You could wade the river like you can in July.
The good news is that there are sq. miles of fallow farm land full of high green weeds with no crops planted. It should be great pheasant nesting habitat if it has enough water to get the chicks through the summer. The bad news is there are apparently no pheasants left to build nests. Didn't see or hear a single bird crowing where they should have been calling everywhere.
