This morning, while headed east on Sound Ave., I noticed a large group of Canada Geese streaming into a farm field north of the road. I turned off onto Oakleigh Avenue (north) which provided a nice vantage point for viewing the flock of 1000+ Canada Geese. Within the flock was a single ROSS'S GOOSE.
I only managed to view the flock for about 5 minutes until farm operations began and sent the nervous birds back toward the south. Just a heads up for those that might find themselves out this way.
