Birds in Vancouver(Snow Goose in Delta)-Vol.24 温哥华鸟类 (Delta的雪雁)

The Snow Goose (Anser caerulescens) is one of North America’s most iconic migratory birds. Each autumn, tens of thousands migrate south from their Arctic breeding grounds to overwinter in British Columbia’s Delta region and the Fraser River estuary. Recognized by their pure white plumage and black wingtips, they gather in vast flocks across wetlands and harvested fields, creating a breathtaking spectacle. Their arrival marks a highlight of the migration season, drawing birdwatchers and photographers to witness this remarkable natural event.

雪雁（Snow Goose，学名 Anser caerulescens）是北美最具代表性的候鸟之一，每年秋季成千上万只从北极繁殖地南迁至不列颠哥伦比亚省三角洲（Delta）及菲沙河口地区越冬。它们以洁白的羽毛与黑色翼尖著称，常在稻田与湿地成群觅食，场面壮观。雪雁的迁徙不仅是自然奇观，也对当地生态与农业产生重要影响，吸引众多观鸟者和摄影师前来记录这一年度盛景。
