On
Monday, the LDN's Curtis Fox was out
flying with a friend over Mason County
and the Illinois River. Fox caught an
amazing sight, the migration of snow
geese by tens of thousands landing on
the Illinois River backwaters and the
nearby Emiquon Nature Preserve. The
white "islands" in the photo on the
right are geese that have landed on the
river. In the photo on the left are
hundreds more, still aloft, but
preparing to take their rest. Fox said
the airplane was flying at an altitude of about
2,500, the lowest allowed over a nature
preserve, offering the unique
perspective of seeing the birds from
above.
