Goose migration mystery persists
A Wisconsin reader notes multiple goose flocks passing overhead in spring, counting 93 then 13 then 101 birds, and ponders migration timing and Northward departure delays. The piece discusses Canadas from Illinois to central Canada, stopover sites like Horicon Marsh, weight gain, and possible reasons for take-off timing. It includes notes on cardinals, warblers, and other birds, ending with a contact for ornithology writer Mrs Robbins at The Country Today.
