I've just seen from our house near Interlaken, numerous large flocks of SNOW GEESE flying south over Cayuga Lake. They are quite high and flying in formation, unlike their more scattered patterns when flying more locally. I estimated 3-4,000 and there could easily have been more. They might be over Ithaca now or soon.
On Monday we birded up the west side of the lake from Interlaken and saw about dusk from near Knapp Winery 2 very large rafts of SNOW GEESE and 1 small raft mid-lake. We also had lunch at Wolffy's and found it very nice.
