I just saw that the snow geese have returned to Middle Creek (120,000) and was thinking about heading out there early next week when the rain stops.

Can anyone provide advice as to the best time(s) of day (morning/afternoon) and what are the best spots?

Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike,
Just head in on the main road. The fields on your left usually have abundant geese.
You can also walk to the lake along the trail that's accessible from the first parking lot on your left.
I think you'll have success most any time of the day.
The Visitor Center just up the road, on the right, is worth going into, for refuge maps, etc.
Enjoy!

I went there a couple of times in the last days. The birds are in different spots every day but it's hard to miss them. Just go up and down the road and if they are not there, they might be along the tour route at stop 3. Both mornings and evenings can be good. I prefer days with high clouds to prevent harsh shadows.
