From Jeff Ellerbusch:
There was a Cackling Goose on the western most section of the property this afternoon, easily viewed from the Torpey Athletic Complex. The entire group picked up off the field and put down into the river shortly after I arrived. Wind was absolutely ridiculous, could hardly keep the scope still…the feeding shot below is the only not completely blurred photo.
Also of note was an incredibly small Canada, which has been seen a few times previous. On that note, keep in mind that with the surprising number of Cackling Geese lately, there have also been quite a few very small Canadas. A handfull of these have been startlingly small…and fewer still have not only been startlingly small, but far more importantly, proportionally “odd”.
Would be interesting if some of these were hybrids…
Jeff
