This was my third trip to Bosque Del Apache which is located about 15 miles south of Socorro, New Mexico. I have been there in the spring and late summer but had never made it to see the great migration of Sandhill Cranes and Canadian Snow Geese. Between these two groups of birds there can be as many as twenty to thirty thousand Sandhill Cranes and forty to sixty thousand Snow Geese in different years. This is not counting the huge amounts of other bird types that also migrate to, or make their home in the Bosque Del Apache.
