[Tweeters] Canada Geese are on the move!

[Jim Betz via Tweeters]

Hi,

   I have been seeing flocks of Canada Geese for the last week (+?).  As 
in 10+ individuals

landing from higher up (at least 1000 feet, more?) and they do not 
appear to be "locals

moving around".  A couple of times it was about 50+ birds. Always coming 
down from a

Northerly direction, never back in the same location the next day.

   The fall migration is ON!                  - Jim

P.S. Places I've seen them have been here in the Skagit Flats, on the 
Samish Flats, at

        Ship Harbor, at Hayton, at Channel Drive ... etc.  Most often on 
calm waters and

        protected wetlands.  And honking as they fly (usually my first 
clue they are near.)
