Snow Geese in Snow Squall - February 29, 2012

When the phone rang this morning the caller proudly announced: "I'm Going to Make Your Day". She was calling to tell me that a flock of 200+ Snow Geese had just landed on a hay field in Berkshire along Route 38. I took my time approaching them in a zigzag pattern so as not to spook them off. I managed to get within 100 feet of these beauties. They probably landed because flight visibility was less that 1/4 mile in the heavy snow.
