Snow Geese Arrive in the Fairbury Area
Thousands of Snow Geese darken the skies in and around Fairbury, Nebraska as they migrate back to their summer feeding grounds in Northern Canada. This spectacle of nature can been witnessed now driving through the agricultural landscape that surrounds the Fairbury area. Fairbury and the surrounding area lie in the path of the spring migration. Many hunters come to the Fairbury area each spring to take advantage of this opportunity - click here for hunting information including waterfowl seasons, permit information, zone maps, etc. from the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission. For Fairbury-Area Hunting Guide, click here About Snow Geese:
Lesser Snow Geese are usually seen in very large flocks and are always quite vocal. When flying they stay together in large groups, but they do not generally fly in Vs like Canada Geese. Instead they form lines or U formations that change shape frequently. Because of the apparent waving motion of the flying lines, snow geese are sometimes known as "wavies." |
