[nysbirds-l] Greater White-fronted Goose, Hauppauge, NY
At 1:30PM today (01/15), there was an immature Greater White-fronted Goose at the Hauppauge High School (Suffolk County). It is currently feeding with about 150 Canada Geese on the soccer/lacrosse fields bordering route 111 (Townline Road) and Lincoln Blvd. Entrance to the high school is from Lincoln Blvd. Right about here: 40.824949, -73.202108 There is no white around the bill of this bird and very little, if any, black barring on the underparts. There are usually many Canada Geese on nearby Stump/Mill Pond inside Blydenburgh County Park, which I'm assuming was iced over today. If it stays, it might also be found there.
