I keep reading how the migration patterns have changed for
ducks and geese. They don't migrate where and when they use to . . . say 50 to 75 years ago.
Hey, this isn't Waikiki Beach on Oahu! It's northern Iowa, where we've had snow, wind and freezing rain already. Aren't you Canadians going south yet?
Eh?

I’m sure we’ve had more Monarchs this year. We’re still seeing plenty passing through Wichita on their fall migration to the mountains of central Mexico, where they will escape the cold winter weather.
Mule deer live in the mountains around here in the summer and migrate into the Bear Lake Valley in winter. They sometimes graze these farm fields in huge numbers and one year we counted more than 300 here at North Eden, Utah, less than a mile from the Idaho border. The east side of Bear Lake is much drier than the west side so the deer usually don't have to battle deep snow here. This photo doesn't show the entire herd which numbered about 40 now. We saw just one buck here. They tend to be more wary around people and stay back in the hills as long as they can.

Quivira National Wildlife Refuge 11/6/2021 A well known stop in central Kansas for migrating birds of all kinds.
Mostly geese here, mainly: white fronted, snow, Ross's, and Canada geese. With a few ducks scattered about and what have you.
Photos seldom do this massive, seemingly chaotic lift-off justice. Typically they aren't leaving the refuge but just repositioning themselves on the water. They can fly horizontally back and forth great distances (often in opposing directions) before settling down in a new spot. One really needs to see it in person to grasp the magnitude. You don't forget all the varied sounds (both the bird's voices and their wings) mingling into one sound.
The entire time we were at Kohler Andrae State Park during our hike, there were cormorants migrating north along Lake Michigan. They use the lake as a migration highway and we would see a few of them here and there, then long streams of them. They were quite the site!
I hope that this video gives a little sense of the wonder of the great migration evokes. I hope humans never get in its way.

An aerated area in Crystal Lake where there were hundreds of water foul beside or in the open water. It was about -16 degrees below zero on this morning, and several actually looked frozen.
Canadian Geese, swans, snow geese, ducks and several I couldn't tell what they were due to the haze around the open water!
What happened to migration? Seriously?

I have already posted several pictures of the Semipalmated Sandpipers I captured in Grand-Pré, Nova Scotia. These images were taken in the Bay of Fundy at Johnson's Mills, New Brunswick where I headed after Sackville, only a 30 minute drive. This is where you will find the greatest numbers of these shorebirds during their migration between mid-July to mid-August. I spent two days observing them and this is the biggest flock for me which was approximately 45,000. Much greater than in Grand Pré. In this case, the Peregrine Falcon flew over the flock at rest on the beach and picked one up. Needless to say the entire flock took off..... the view and sound cannot be described, just spectacular.
