There have been lots of Snow Geese in South Glengarry township over the last few weeks. Monday morning a flock of over a thousand were in the tilled fields to the west of Highway 34 about two kms. north of the village of Lancaster (just north of Munro's Agromart).

It did not take long for GOLDIE to appear to feast. Indeed, I did not stay too long--I could barely see across the roadway. I shall likely go back in the early afternoon. >From the west exit 401 at Salem Rd.(in Ajax), south to Bayly, east through LakeRidge to the first street (Hall's Rd.), south to the FIRST ROADSIDE PARKING AREA.
