Media notes
At 1:59pm, 500 Snow Geese sitting on Blackwater River erupted into flight -- predator avoidance behavior -- wheeled about together and landed in about the same place. I did not see or hear the perceived threat to the SNGO, but 10 minutes before there was a Bald Eagle (and it was recorded and included in this checklist). Weather: Overcast. Low 40s.
Observation details
Snow Geese were on Blackwater River occasionally exploding in flight together, and generally returning to about the same spot on the water.
