Hi there, Today (26 September) from 1235 - 1330, I observed the Greater White-fronted Geese (2) that were previously noted from that location. There were also Richardson's Cackling Geese (4) among the great mass of Canada Geese (3600+). Photos, for those interested in viewing, will be posted to my blog site.
A note for those participating in the OFO field trips this weekend: Moodie Pond is a scheduled stop on the South End trip. Directions (as per those available on neilyworld.com): From Highway 416 take exit 66 (Fallowfield Road). If southbound, a 0.4 km offramp dumps onto Fallowfield, where you will turn right or west. If northbound, the 0.4 km offramp brings you to Fallowfield, where you will turn left or west onto it and in 0.5 km join the southbound offramp traffic. Both groups will now follow Fallowfield Road west for an additional 0.4 km to reach Moodie Drive. Turn left or southeast onto Moodie Drive and go 4.0 km to Cambrian Road. Turn left or ENE on Cambrian and almost immediately veer right or southeast on Trail Road the site of the Nepean Dump. The entrance is 1.0 km east on Trail, on the left.
