Snow Geese in Flight at Sunrise, Bosque del Apache, New Mexico

A large flock of snow geese (Chen caerulescens) takes off at sunrise from a pond at the Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge in New Mexico. During the winter months, thousands of snow geese spend the night on the pond and take off at or just before sunrise. This dramatic show is best viewed from part of the reserve known as the Flight Deck.
