Description
These two Snow Geese were landing at Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge in New Mexico, where hundreds of others were waiting on the ground. Such a beautiful sight!
From Cornell Lab's website: "Watching huge flocks of Snow Geese swirl down from the sky, amid a cacophony of honking, is a little like standing inside a snow globe. These loud, white-and-black geese can cover the ground in a snowy blanket as they eat their way across fallow cornfields or wetlands. Among them, you might see a dark form with a white head—a color variant called the “Blue Goose.” Snow Geese have skyrocketed in numbers and are now among the most abundant waterfowl on the continent."
