[nysbirds-l] Baisley Pond Ross' Goose

2018-01-11 Thread Rob Bate
The Ross' Goose was foraging with about 300 Canadas and Brants on the ballfields just south of Baisley Pond. The fields are part of the BP Park and I guess the roost on the water and ice on the pond and forage on the fields during the day. Rob Bate Brooklyn -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http
