Above Montana, and nestled between Saskatchewan and British Columbia, Alberta is a sight to behold. Rolling fields of Peas, Barley, and Wheat stretch as far as the eye can see, and provide a Smorgasbord for the Waterfowl that visit the area. An incredible variety of Ducks, Geese, Swans, and Cranes migrate through the area, and every day brings a fresh group of birds. Lakes, Ponds and Potholes are everywhere, and every one of them serves as a safe evening roost for the southward visitors.
Alberta is a waterfowler’s paradise. Practically every variety of Canada Goose is found here, from the diminutive Cackler to the majestic Giant. White-Fronted Geese (Specklebellies), and two varieties of Snow Geese, the Lesser Snow Goose and the tiny Ross’ Goose, whose bill does not seem an inch long, stage here in numbers that are impossible to imagine. Thousands of Mallards and Pintails are found in every pothole, slough, and lake.
This is wild country, "Big Sky Country." You’ll see Elk, Mule & Whitetail Deer, Coyotes, Magpies, Bison, Badgers, Weasels, Minks, Eagles, Owls, Hawks, Falcon and Sandhill Cranes. Make sure you bring your best camera,and plenty of film. "Fun-Savers" won’t cut it here.
