Finding Geese Collars

I searched all over the Arcata Bottoms to find some geese collars. Unfortunately when I arrived, a red van had just pulled away and I assume they scared all the geese away, for they were walking far out of my vista point. Although I was sad that I was not going to recieve any numbers, a flock of geese flew overhead making beautiful noises and all I could think is I would get them next time. For now, this is good enough.
