At 7:00 pm this evening there were perhaps a couple of dozen geese on the pond
at the Trisan Centre; same at 7:45 pm. But in the next 10 or 15 minutes
hundreds arrived, and although the Barnacle was not seen arriving we were able
to pick it out on the water while there was (barely) enough light. In fact,
when it faced east it was quite hard to pick out, but when it faced into the
still reasonably bright western sky it showed quite well.
Good luck.John GealePort Hope, ON
Directions: Once at Schomberg, Dillane Dr. is about 600 m south of Hwy. 9, off
Hwy. 27. Follow Dillane Dr. east around the curve, for about 450 m. Turn east
into the Trisan Centre parking lot. The pond can be clearly viewed from the
viewing platform at the east end of the parking lot.

The goose is continuing as of 2:50pm in the pond at 6665 19th Sideroad,

Happy birding,
