walking about on the grass at Taughannock Point on the afternoon of March 16th.
That goose was pretty clearly unwilling to fly - it held one wing slightly
raised as if injured, and when it became wary of the attention it

I just got back from Cass Park and saw the lone snow goose about 10 minutes
ago (and 1 3/4 hours ago in a similar location) in the grass on the inlet
side not far past the Childrens' Garden. I agree that it looks healthy and
is walking in the grass nibbling, but it seems odd to see it there
There was a lone Snow Goose strolling along the daffodil part of the Waterfront
Trail just south of Cass Park Rink this morning. It seemed healthy although I
didn't see it fly. I circled back around after a tour of three occupied Osprey
nests and it was gone.

The banded snow goose I observed today is a female greater than 2
years old. She was banded in 2018 on Bylot Island, Nunavut XOA OSO, Canada.
Thanks to all who responded to my request for help with a special thanks to
Laurie Michelman for the tip on how to get quick feedback on the "band".

To kick off what I'm sure will be another fantastic season of migrating Snow
Geese, I am holding a virtual program tomorrow evening "All About Snow Geese"!
This presentation will be recorded, so if you can not make it "live", the
recording can be sent to you if you register ahead of time.
The field on Carncross is just about dried up but I did find a lone snow goose
hanging out with a bunch of Canada geese.
Heard several Sandhill Cranes to the south as well, but they were not visible.

At VanDyne Spoor Rd late yesterday afternoon near end of road. Flew OK about

Has it been there since last spring or is it early coming south?

I don’t know how long it has been there, but it was there on 21 July, molting

did not respond to playbacks on my Big Day. It certainly is not a bird

HI all,
Around 4pm Saturday, I noticed a lone Snow Goose hanging out in the
southernmost section of the large wetland on Thomas Road, Ithaca (this road
links Ellis Hollow Road and Rt 79). The bird was standing, preening, on a
tussock of vegetation in the water when I drove past, did a

I checked only a few Dryden spots on the way home with nothing remarkable to
