I checked Gerry Park today and found neither Cackling Goose nor Greater White-fronted Goose. However, there were four Wood Ducks, six or seven Hooded Mergansers, and seventeen Gadwalls, in addition to the normal residents: Canada Geese, Mallards, and Herring and Ring-billed Gulls. There were also two American Coots present and I saw three Red-tailed Hawks over the pond.
-- *Yours, * * Avery* "The assumption that animals are without rights, and the illusion that our treatment of them has no moral significance, is a positively outrageous example of Western crudity and barbarity. Universal compassion in the only guarantee of morality.” --Arthur Shopenhauer -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/NYSB.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
