DirkWill Loc: Albuquerque, New Mexico
 
The past several years there has not been the roosting of massive numbers of snow geese in places where they could be seen when they blast off. Smaller groups could be found but the numbers like 10 years ago haven't been seen...until this year. These blast offs were from a hundred yards north of the Flight Deck for those of you who know the BdA. Earlier this year, I don't think the snows were roosting there, but they did last weekend. When the sky is completely filled with the rush of wings and cries of joy (?), one needs to just put the camera down and be present to one of the most exhilarating displays nature has to offer!

Beautiful photos and lotsa birds.....I was there exactly a month ago and the entire Bosque was frozen over, covered in snow, closed to vehicular travel and available only for walking....what a mess then, beautiful now.
