This evening, I observed a single CACKLING GOOSE among a group of 600 Canada Geese on the sod field north of Head of the Neck Road in Manorville.
I had previously visited Eastport Lake where, upon arrival, small groups of geese were headed northwest toward the above mentioned field. Both locations good to check if anyone tries for this bird. There's been a recent influx of geese following Saturday's storm event so perhaps one of the rare Palearctic species will soon make an appearance.
