Snow geese migration

Ed it looks like the geese should be around your parts for a while. Snow all through the Dakotas. It's funny that Snow Geese don't really like snow ;D

Mounter:
Cool pics. Snows and blues run about 50-50 in the flocks I see around here. Blues just being a color phase of the snow goose. The one n the close up is kinda unusual tho.

The darker ones in the back ground are speckle bellies, you can see some black stripes on a few in your picture. They're the best eating goose IMO.

Zuma:
Ducks Unlimited has a fowl migration web site.
It has reports from private observers on the ground.
The last reports I saw had the snows sorta trapped in
Iowa and southern South Dakota. Deep snow north of there.

Zuma:
The geese got hung up in Iowa and South Dakota for a month or so.
Some friends were even killing them in northern AK a week ago.
Fortunatly I book off on the 4,500 mi. trip to North Dakota.
My buddy is in Bismark. He shot one goose. He says they won't
 decoy in and they are flying high and fast, Lucky me. Oh yeah, just
 crackin freezing during the day with plenty of snow and mud.
I think the geese need to get to the Arctic asap as they are very late this year.

BowEd:
Well I guess that's the way hunting geese can go I quess.Do you usually shoot a bunch? I think Gary here got a couple dozen snow geese in Iowa here but it was in just a couple of days worth of hunting.
