As Lompaso says, it does not seem to be the resident bird population in the adjacent sanctuaries.

Me neither.
Removing one of the "clear and present dangers" in the form of bird "sanctuaries" within a couple of miles of LGA is fairly straightforward. Moving LGA, JFK and Newark, plus the New York metropolis, is not.
The birds have plenty of other places to go. New York does not.
A quick fag packet calculation shows that geese would need to fly for some 3 miles before they could reach a height of 3000 feet. Why would they do a circle climb to height?
Look at all the websites both quoted here and elsewhere, where is Cheaspeake Bay? Maybe it needs concreting over or netting?
Who designated the Atlantic Flyway for geese? Can the FAA realign the flyway?
