It was a fast migration this year,most likey the birds are in canada by now,but yeah,its a losing battle to keep their population in check,if they were better table fare it get more folks out in the spring,when this conservation hunt started the usfw service had plans to destroy the snow goose nests/eggs through out the tundra,"peta" filed a law suit against the usfw that stopped this program and here we are today with over 5million strong nesting snow geese in north america.

This is what it looks like  from the layout looking straight up~with the landing gear down.
