Further to Stan Long's note of this morning, there is at least 1 more white-phase Snow Goose, making the total 10 Snow Geese total (7 white, 3 "blue" phase) plus the long-staying Ross's Goose, at least 2 Cackling Geese although there are likely more in amongst the 1000's of Canadas. Also, a lone American Coot and a few Ruddy Ducks and Bufflehead. I was there at from 3:30pm to 4:05pm and the pond was packed with still more geese & ducks coming in to roost.
