The Ross's Goose first found on October 23 at the wet area on Moodie Dr.
south of Trail Rd. was still there as of 5:30 pm today, October 25 amongst
fifty or so Snow Geese.
The Greater White-fronted Goose was not seen, but could easily have been
present amongst the hundreds and hundreds of Canada Geese.
A Lesser Black-backed Gull was seen amongst several hundred Herring Gulls in
a nearby farm field.

From Highway 416 take exit 66 (Fallowfield Road). If southbound, a 0.4 km
offramp dumps onto Fallowfield, where you will turn right or west. If
northbound, the 0.4 km offramp brings you to Fallowfield, where you will
turn left or west onto it and in 0.5 km join the southbound offramp traffic.
Both groups will now follow Fallowfield Road west for an additional 0.4 km
to reach Moodie Drive. Turn left or southeast onto Moodie Drive and go 5.3
km, the wet area is on the east side of the road.
