I just emailed Paul that I had Snow Goose in Lansing on 30 Dec (900!!) in a corn stubble field at 34B and Armstrong Rd. I really hoped that they were spending the nights off Portland Point and that my group would get them in the early morning of the count, but they didn't show up.
We also did have Red-breasted Merganser on the 1st just south of Ladoga Rd, but unfortunately, they were about a quarter mile north of the count circle.
