Last year in mid-December, folks were seeing flocks of thousands of Snow Geese in the Cayuga Basin. It doesn't appear that is the case this year. The colder air and northerly winds last week seemed to only produce southbound flocks of Canada Geese. Is the main flight of Snows still to our north, or did they pass southward to our east or west this year? Or is avian flu the culprit? I saw a note a few days ago of people in Kansas seeing Snow Geese fall out of the sky there (carcasses later testing positive for avian flu).

I just had a small flock of snow geese fly low over my house near Auburn on rt 20. They were flying west.
