Hello Ontbirds people, The Ross's Goose discovered on 03 April along Eagleson Rd. near Richmond, ON has been subsequently seen by several observers - on the 4th along Barnsdale Rd. between Twin Elm and Eagleson Rd., and on the 5th along Brownlee Rd. west of Eagleson Rd. and then in the flooded area near the Jock River along Twin Elm Rd. where it was last seen ~ 2:35 pm today 05 April. This bird has been flying and feeding with Canada Geese and does not seem to remain in one area for very long but is probably still around in the same general vicinity.
Requirements are: patience, a bit of driving around, and scanning eye-boggling hordes of Canada Geese for that one small white goose........ Directions: >From downtown Ottawa, take Hwy 417 west to Hwy 416. Go south on the 416 to >exit #66 (Fallowfield Rd.), then west on Fallowfield to Eagleson. South on >Eagleson and then drive around the aforementioned roads in the general area. Happy wild goose chasing!
