Emiquon

Drove down to Emiquon Reserve on Sunday to see the Snow Geese. No, I can't take credit for the image but they released about 4' of water (yes, the rivers are rising around here) into the 9,000 acres of wetland and within 48 hours over 100,000 of these great birds had arrived. How did they know? Even though they were probably a half mile away the noise was amazing. My thanks to the Nature Conservancy for the work they are doing north of Havana, IL.
