Index of Subjects March 29, 2008 I was there after 10 am and found two adult snow geese on the corn fields along with over 300 Canada Geese. More and more geese flew in, but no sign of the Greater white fronted goose. One hour later, at least fifteen Snow geese came in and began to forage. It was hard to count them because of their blending with the snow. Later in the day, a fierce Peregrine Falcon got EVERY goose and duck off to the air. A magnificent show! A delightful surprise to see a flock of 22 Snow geese flying together (plus three other Snow geese in other flocks) . So graceful and beautiful. A perfect opportunity for photography. Ducks included hundreds of black ducks, at least 10 Northern Pintails, 15 American Wigeons, Mallards, and mergansers. I was not good at identifying ducks in flight... Still no luck with Jeff's goose... I am wondering if it is the sign of geese and ducks migrating north?? Over 40 Robins, a lone grackle, and a lone Bohemian waxwing were sighted. Two Grey partridges were located on the NSAC premises. A great birding day.... Cheers, liz
