I have attached a message from Jacques Bouvier to the Ottawa RBA with regard to the PFGO. There is no certainty that this is “our” bird but I just wanted anyone travelling to be aware of all the issues. Hopefully the local bird will be seen again this weekend and we will certainly post ASAP if that is the case. Michael
SEE BELOW: As of 3 pm there has been a Pink-footed Goose reported at Chambly QC about 2 hours from Ottawa...SE of Montreal. In past whenever there has been one reported in same week in Massena NY, Eastern Ontario and Western Quebec it was never reported on same day. Same individual or maybe 2 birds this time? Time will tell. JB Sent from my iPhone _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists (OFO) - the provincial birding organization.
