Default Snow geese

We got Snow geese on the move in East Central Iowa today. Went out last night at 7:30 to let the dogs out and heard ALOT of geese. Had to run to Schimberg this morning and looked up and seen 2 very large scanes way up heading North.

And on a side note while walking to my truck in the parking lot at 7:00 this morning heard 3 different Gobblers making a ruckus.

Wont be long now.

Watching thousands of them right now flying between Lone Tree and Nichols. What a site to see. I'd have to say I've never seen them like this before in this part of the state!

HA! By the sounds of it the guy can't hit anything today so he should have brought some reinforcements-make sure to tape some routines for your boy to study, there's going to be a quite a few top notch callers at that contest!
