Gaggle of Geese

[David Norton]

Hi All,

I am attaching a few pictures of a large gaggle of geese on the ground all pointed westerly during the snow storm the other day in Webster. There were hundreds. It looked like they landed during the heavy snow fall.

Thanks for any observations,

Dave

Yes mine only had a tiny patch of red, mostly brown, and also looked a bit scruffy.
