I am seeing some interest in southern Minnesota Goose locations. I arrived at Talcot WMA shortly before sunset yesterday. Two large flocks of geese totaling ~1500 birds were leaving (flying east). I was able to count 500 of these geese by twos. All I counted and heard were White-fronts. A smaller flock (~100 birds) or two that left were also White-fronts. There were some Canada Geese in the area. Duck diversity is picking up, but in my limited efforts I have only seen about 8 species so far. Gulls seemed to be showing up in decent numbers the last couple days.
Talcot may be a good place to go if looking for White-fronts. I did not notice any snow, ross's or cackling. Sorry I don't have better information, maybe tomorrow.
