20081130 Thanksgiving Trip to Chincoteague
Nov 30, 2008

We headed to Chincoteague on Black Friday for the first time ever at this time of year. We had hear ...more

d about the snow geese migration and also wanted to check out the service road side of the wildlife loop which is only open during this weekend. The week of Thanksgiving is Waterfowl Week on the island and there were a ton of birders on hand. The snow geese migration was an amazing sight. In talking with birders there, the numbers were less than they had been earlier in the week. It truly was a sight to behold and needs to be experienced in person, pictures just don't do it justice. There are also pictures of bald eagles (eating a snow goose) and a Merlin with a captured sanderling.

rselves. We hit Big Meadows around 7am and had a bunch of deer with us. We saw mostly does and juveniles, but had a few bucks today also. It was very, very cold and wind blowing a gale, so we mostly stayed in the vehicle. A very fun day trip with plenty of opportunities to try out my new camera.
