Sarah & Eric Lamond saw a Greater White-fronted Goose (11:30 a.m.) with a few hundred Canada Geese in a corn stubble field on the south side of Conc 7 W, about 700m west of where it crosses Hwy 8. This is between Cambridge and Sheffield on Hwy 8. The bird was there until 12:15 when a helicopter flushed all the birds which subsequently landed in a pond just on the N side of Conc 7. Soon after all the birds flew off to the NE over Hwy 8. The birds will likely return to this field although they can also be found in other cornfields in the area. There are also about 20 Trumpeter Swans in the fields in this area.
