According to the park staff, the best time to visit Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area during the snow geese migration is either 6:30 AM or 6:30 PM.  The geese and swans roost on the lake during the night and so in the morning, you have the opportunity to watch them awaken at sunrise and take off in large numbers to go out to nearby fields to feed for the day.  In the evening, the geese and swans return to the lake by the thousands and settle in for the night amidst a flurry of loud honking and flapping wings.  Being at the park during migration is an unforgettable experience!
