Hi all! A few days ago, I was driving behind Lake Lowell and saw a field with Snow and Greater White-fronted Geese. This caused me to call out to Fort Boise to see if they were getting activity on their end. As of today, they’re seeing 5,000+ Snow Geese and a few White-fronted between the refuge area and Roswell Marsh. With the warmer temperatures, the officers out in that area aren’t sure what this will mean for the rest of the migration. That being said, I know that GEAS does a yearly field trip out to Fort Boise at the end of March, but my impression is that this time frame may be too late this year. Just thought I’d let you all know about the changes in these birds’ migration.
