Yes! By the thousands! You have to check out Bosque Del Apache National Wildlife Refuge anywhere from November to the end of January. Sometimes over 100,000 waterfowl! Also a couple thousand Sandhill Cranes, and an odd Whooping Crane if you are lucky. If you go, bundle up and be there before dawn for the morning take off. One of the best wildlife experiences...
