Right on cue, our first Snow Geese descended on the county yesterday morning when Matthew VanDyk reported approximately 40 birds on Skinners Lane. Shortly afterwards, Linda Scrima located a Ross’s Goose in the flock. By evening, Travis Rubio reported the flock had grown to over 500 birds. When I arrived this morning, I had an estimated 1,200+ birds. The birds were distant and very active, so I did not really have a chance to search for the Ross’s, but it’s always a good day of birding when you have a nice big flock of Snow Geese. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
