Snow Geese on the move in Missouri. A sea of white could be near you

A touch of white for the holidays is available at Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) wetlands and lakes. 

Snow geese by the thousands are visiting western Missouri this month. 

The Arctic-nesting geese have made their annual migration from the north. 

They rest in huge flocks on open water, sometimes rising in loud honking swirls of white and gray. 

The geese fly back and forth from feeding areas when not resting.   

Trumpeter swans also can be also be spotted this time of year.

For waterfowl watching, be sure to bring a camera and binoculars.
