I found them up by almost Canada to be on the sparse side also, I'm used to shooting 7-800 in a 10 hr period but not this year. But then on the other hand my shooting grounds all got plowed last fall to start a new alpha crop so there wasn't much showing yet. Found a spot out of but it was all stubble field and was hard to see them, still got 91 in 3 hours. Still have to make my highline trip for pasture poodles.
