The field on the west side of the airport at Palmer, Alaska is a migratory stop for geese. Late in the evening the migratory flocks start dropping out of the sky. We saw thousands of Canada Geese, hundreds of Snow Geese, and two Sandhill Crane this evening.

The side of the road is visible at the bottom of this picture. I was standing on the pavement, on the opposite side. There were a half dozen car loads of spectators, but it was as if we weren't even there.
