Photos of the Week: Snow geese

Dec 4, 2025 | Photos of the Week

WE LOVE TO watch the comings and goings of birds during the fall migration, but the Champlain Valley is blessed with a superabundance of migrating snow geese, which come through in such numbers that they hold a special place in our hearts. The wide open fields and water features around the Dead Creek Wildlife Management Area in Addison is so popular with the geese that the state built a special area along Route 17 where photographers could pull off and capture stunning photos of some of the thousands of birds that pass through every fall.

AS IF THE beauty of snow geese flying in formation, their ink-tipped wings nearly touching, wasn’t lovely enough, a local photographer timed his shot to superimpose the migrating flock under the moon rising over the Champlain Valley this weekend. Photo by Lee Krohn
