This evening there were huge rafts of Snow Geese
on Cayuga Lake visible from Cayuga Lake State
Park as well as Route 89 just a few miles south
of Cayuga Lake State Park. Just south of the
park, along Route 89, there was a flock of Tundra
Swans very close to shore. There were scattered
groups of Bufflehead, Redhead, Ring-necked Ducks,
and American Wigeon, and the occasional scaup,
Black Duck, Mallard, and Red-breasted Merganser.
I'm sure there was much more, but I was there
only briefly. A simply stunning sight in the
evening light, especially when the Snow Geese all took to the air!
