200 Snow Geese in Jamaica Bay is unusual. There's usually around 1000 or
more. You may wish to refer back in your e-mail archives to "Brooklyn Count

Subject: [nysbirds-l] Snow geese at JBNWR
A large flock of snow geese has arrived at the Jamaica Bay NWR. 200+
geese were in the salt marshes west of West Pond at 2:30pm. I entered
200 snow geese into e-bird, and e-bird considers this an unusual
sighting, so I'm passing it on.
Also at the refuge were a great cormorant and 1+ common mergansers,
both first of season for me.
