Very well could be avian flu. If you want, you could contact your most local NYSDEC office and let the wildlife biologist know. I’m not sure if they’re still testing specimens, but I bet that’s what it is. 

Migration = close proximity to many others and high stress. Unfortunately the perfect situation for a virus to spread.

Hi,

 

I have seen four dead Canada Geese on Beebe Lake.  Any idea what’s going on?  I have found two still floating upright in the water, with their heads under the water as if eating.

 

Thanks,

 

Karen

The Confederacy precedes the establishment of Cornell University, New York State, and the United States of America. We acknowledge the painful history of Gayogo̱hó꞉nǫ' dispossession, and honor the ongoing connection of Gayogo̱hó꞉nǫ' people, past and present, to these lands and waters.
