It's Snowing Geese 7810

Autumn is almost upon us and across areas of the country snow will begin to fall. It will fall not just as silent icy flakes, but also as cacophonous feathered fowl. In this photo snow geese fly out to the fields in New Mexico's Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge, after a long migration from the northern reaches of the American continent. Snow geese are foragers that feed on a variety of roots, shoots, and grains. They are some of nature's most successful animals. Some environmentalist believe that they may be too successful, and that their large numbers may be damaging the delicate northern tundra. It is an area that requires more study. These large flocks are, without doubt, I sight to see and hear. #ILoveBirds #ILoveNature #ILoveWildlife #WildlifePhotography in #NewMexico #Nature in the #USA #SnowGeese #ItsSnowingGeese #Geese #Birds #Birding #Photography #Picoftheday #Photooftheday
