The Barnacle Goose was on the Parade Grounds at Van Cortlandt Park, near the Nature Center, where I've seen the bird a number of times at 12:30 this afternoon. I hope the birders from Ohio will take in a show too!! That's a long way to drive for a bird Gerry McGee

Angus, I found a better photo from yesterday and uploaded it after cropping the other bird out of it: http://gerrymcgee.smugmug.com/Nature/2013-Bird-Photos/i-PbvFXzD/0/L/_A180143-1-L.jpg This one shows the undertail coverts more clearly. Also, the light was very bright and I toned it

The GWFG was on the lake at Van Cortlandt Park at about 12:30 this afternoon. Later the bird was grazing on the 14th hole of the golf course and not paying the golfers any mind. Also had two Snowy Geese with the flock of Canada Geese on the golf course and three pairs of Hooded Merganzers.
