Hello Ontbirders
This morning, between 10:30am and 10:45am, at Cobbs Lake, east of
Bourget, south of Russel Road we observed a flock of approximately
14,000 snow geese - a mix of both Greater and Lesser.
We watched thousands-of-birds (including one Cackling Goose) fly in
from the north to join a large flock already settled in the field.
Two impressive flights of about 4000 birds total were the distinctive
"salt & pepper" of Lesser Snow Geese.
