I was out about 9am and saw and heard many hundreds of Snow Geese flying south, so if Ellie saw them in TBurg about 10am, there must have been thousands across a broad front. Shirley and I were on Sheffield Rd about 2pm and saw hundreds of Canadas and somewhat fewer Snows in the cornfields around Iradell Rd. So maybe not all the geese were headed south of the snow belt.
