A decent portion of them are likely snow geese. Lots of new birds moving into the area. There are so several subspecies of canadas in the areas as well as whitefronts/specklebelly.

Folks need to remember that this week in the north Sound area the season is closed for dark geese (snows only). While hunting snows this AM had 3 specks nearly land in the decoys (within 15 yards of me) and all I could do was point my finger at them and say "bang" and watch them back-pedal. Also saw a good number of swans for this early in the season (maybe 75 or so with a couple flocks setting on the snow geese decoys and gliding to within 15 feet of me). One of the swans (a tundra) had a neck band. Seems like the migration is on.
