they perhaps were heading to Dry Creek Res which is just a mile north of me
so, yes they were heading north
they were high enough that I could not pick out any field markings and it is driving me to distraction wondering what they were
the sun and their vector was such that all I could make out was: smaller than sandhill and canada, bigger then mallard/duck, no color except perhaps white on the back/underside, chunky body with a bit of an extended neck...
they were silent
flew in somewhat disorganized V's, needed steady, but smooth, flapping... no gliding
could there be a flock of snow geese that large in the area?
