White-fronts were at Blydenburgh County Park this morning until just after 8:00 when the lion's share of geese began moving out. A Snow Goose that has been on the pond since yesterday morning is apparently injured, with two drooping wings. It was feeding nervously on the side of the main road through the park at around noon. I contacted rehabbers, but the goose was back on the ice at 5:00, so looks like attempts to help the bird were unsuccessful.
