Letter to the editor: Those weren’t Canada geese

Thank you for the special Fall section in the September 28th edition of the Independent. The article about Canada Geese was especially interesting. However, the photos published with this article are of Snow Geese, not Canada Geese. If Addison County residents would like to view migrating waterfowl (geese and ducks), please visit our very own Dead Creek Wildlife Management Area. They have a fabulous Visitor Center along Route 17 in Addison. Starting this week the Visitor Center will be open Wednesday through Sunday. For more information visit vtfishandwildlife.com/watch-wildlife/dead-creek-visitor-center.
