Have you considered incorporating aerial shots into your home marketing strategy or simply showcasing your property from a unique perspective? A friend of mine recently utilized this approach after completing his custom-built church house, designed in the style of a classic country church, complete with a pair of donkeys.

Great news for us drone operators! These new changes considering utilizing UAS as a recovery method will greatly help hunters recover their deer or bear, and decreasing the potential for losing the game.

Not only does the thermal aid in finding the animal, but flying above it at a height that the animal does not notice or is disturbed by it. Also by flying above we can track and find the deer without scenting up the area from our human bodies or the scent from dogs.

Hunting season is going to be here again sooner than you know it, and CGD Aerial Services will be here and ready to help you recover that deer.

The Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries Commission (LWFC) passed several amendments to the 2026–27 hunting regulations during its February meeting in Baton Rouge. 🦌🦃

The amendments include:
✔️ Updated language on drone use for recovery of mortally wounded deer or bear
✔️ Internal combustion engine restrictions on select LDWF WMAs (no use from noon until 4 a.m., other changes)

These amendments follow January’s passage of Notices of Intent for:
▪️ 2026–27 & 2027–28 hunting seasons
▪️ 2026–27 general & WMA seasons and rules & regs
▪️ 2027 general and WMA turkey season rules & regs
▪️ 2026–27 migratory bird season rules & regs
