Spring Migration

Apr 17, 2013

Migration is in full swing despite our recent winter-like weather. Mic Schweitzer took these photos of geese earlier this month near the US-12 bridge over the Missouri River near Mobridge. "They were all just resting in the water for quite some time until some other spectators came to view them and brought several dogs along," Schweitzer says. "As soon as the dogs were released to run the riverbanks the birds took to the skies for several minutes of frenzy."

Fantastic, Canada Geese have been a long time favorite of mine. Love the images with the Canadas landing before the Snows. Thanks for sharing such beauty. I am coming to visit in S. Dakota in May. Now I know that I will want to return next year during the migration season.
