I went outside at noon and noticed a couple hundred Snow Geese flying north over Ithaca's West End from my yard, then a couple hundred again a few minutes later. I'm not sure if they are circling around or different birds. There are some Canada Geese in the air, too, and a bit aimless. They are similarly not high enough to be migrating but not decisively stopping either. I wonder if hunting has started on the lake. Grazing and grubbing are a rough go today.

And MORE over Ithaca. From the top of the MH building on Green St, skein after skein, some quite low and others almost too high to see. Thousands and thousands. Some even flying north.On Thu, Dec 27, 2012 at 1:00 PM, Geo Kloppel <[email protected]> wrote:Just passed over my house (West Danby). I guesstimated 8,000 - 10,000, more still coming.
