Eye on UMSL: Snow birds

Eye on UMSL: Snow birds

The sun finally broke through the bitter cold last Thursday, and a flock of Canada geese flew together in formation over the snow-covered ground surrounding the Music Building at the University of Missouri–St. Louis.

This photograph was taken by UMSL photographer August Jennewein and is the latest to be featured in Eye on UMSL.
