Snow Geese The Flyby 30-second video (3.8-meg file) | March 8, 2009 |
|
This is the first of two videos of snow geese in action at Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area, Pennsylvania, which is a key staging point for the spring migration of snow geese. They arrive there in the tens of thousands. Over 80,000 geese were at Middle Creek on Sunday, March 1, but not all the geese are shown here. This is a view a flyby, or the edge of a swarm (or goosestorm).
The video is intended for anyone with high-speed access, and it begins automatically. |
