Missouri's Loess Bluffs National Wildlife Refuge estimated more than 192,000 snow geese for the week of Feb. 17, then jumped to more than 755,000 a week later. During the day, many visit farmers' fields along the Mississippi Flyway. Considered one of the most important migration corridors in North America, the flyway runs from the Gulf of Mexico to the McKenzie River in Canada for more than 3,000 miles and more than 325 bird species travel it, according to U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
