jagabom Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 We"re up here in northern Manitoba CANADA at a bush camp fishing & hunting. Pitch black here a night. There were geese flying around. Didn't know they were night rated. Jim CYWG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geese often fly at night, especially in warm weather and during migration. I most often encounter the birds during twilight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doering1 Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 I often wondered about the same fact hearing geese in flight at night squawking away. Didn’t know that about their eyesight!
