Snow Geese Flying in Formation, Skagit County, Washington

Snow geese (Chen caerulescens) fly in formation over the Skagit Valley in Washington state. Geese fly in a V formation, which allows them to conserve energy by taking advantage of the rising currents produced by the goose flying in front of them. They switch positions to give other geese opportunities to fly in the wake.
