Random swarm of geese at my house?
Since this morning there have been HUNDREDS of geese in a cornfield right on the border of my yard. Hundreds of them, and I am not exaggerating that. They're endless. I'm wondering what the cause of this is?? They seem to be all moving in the same direction, but once they get near the road, all at once they get up and fly and they go back to where they started. What are these geese doing? Why are they all crowded here and when will they leave? It is also snowing right now, not too hard but about an inch has accumulated in the last 2 hours, if that has anything to do with the answer. They're quite loud.

Cornfields have corncobs left behind after harvest which means they have corn kernels on them. Geese eat corn.

they're just resting. is there a body of water nearby? flying is exhausting. they stop to drink and rest. they'll leave in a few days. but there's going to be a lot of goose guano to clean up. those are some BIG birds!

They are probably all migrating somewhere together and have stopped for a rest. Your yard must have looked like a good place to land.
