Snow Geese were the most audible migrants locally 3/15-17. Each March, about
10% of the ~one million Greater Snow Geese stage in about 5 counties in se
PA. There was a mass exodus since the end of the monster storm Monday, 3/15.
For example, the estimated number at Middle Creek WMA in Lancaster Co. was
120,000 3/16; today the number was <10,000. Many people in these counties
reported hearing Snow Geese the last few nights; don't know if they showed
up on radar or anyone's recording equipment. They are heading ne toward
Quebec.
