Hi Dave. They are probably heading here.. Bosque del Apache is Spanish for "woods of the Apache," and is rooted in the time when the Spanish observed Apaches routinely camped in the riverside forest. Since then the name has come to mean one of the most spectacular national wildlife refuges in North America. Here, tens of thousands of birds--including sandhill cranes, Arctic geese, and many kinds of ducks--gather each autumn and stay through the winter. Here is the link.. http://www.fws.gov/southwest/refuges/newmex/bosque/index.html

I'm going to head over that way later in the year, I'll try to find them for you.
