I heard some very faint cackling overhead this morning so I looked up to see a skein of 120-150 geese flying south bound very high over the Puget Sound shoreline here in Seahurst (Burien, WA). They were tiny black objects against high overcast and I couldn’t identify them beyond ‘goose’. We have a small (20-25) flock of ‘local’ Canada Geese which seem to be around all year, but these were definitely a migrating flock. I wonder how high they get on the daytime journeys. These were very high.
