Snow Geese

I took this photo of a flock of several hundred Snow Geese (actually the more generic "white geese" is more accurate since though in all likelihood most are Snow Geese there may well be some Ross' Geese in there too) as I returned from the Snow Goose Festival today. I must admit that though there are Snow (white)Geese near Lamar as I noted in earlier posts, there are not large flocks. I found this larger flock in Otero County. In a more usual winter with less snow cover on the ground there would be thousands, probably tens of thousands of white geese in the Lamar area and other locations in SE Colorado.
