The migration is on at Freezout Lake Wildlife Management Area near Choteau, where bird counters have observed more than 156,000 light geese and hundreds of swans pushing through!
This is far above the early season migration numbers, which have averaged approximately 5,000 to 15,000 birds per day for the same time frame since 2004.
Visibility was poor at the WMA over the weekend as a winter storm pushed through.
