The Cackling Goose is still present, now on the athletic fields by the
middle school.

RE: [cayugabirds-l] Cackling Goose?

2014-03-26 Thread Kevin J. McGowan
I'd vote no.  It's hard to tell from the angle, but bill doesn't look stubby 
and triangular enough. Cackling Geese generally lack the kink in the neck when 
they graze on the ground, and this bird shows it.  Size and proportions are not 
reliable from these three photos.

Best,

Kevin

Hello,
Below is a link to a photo of what I believe is a Cackling Goose. Would anyone 
be able to confirm it one way or the other?  Not a local sighting it's in 
Massachusetts
Thanks, Greg

I was out yesterday in some of the local areas and I found hunters and shots 
everywhere.



It was annoying, could not go out anywhere on any trails.

Actually at least 4 CACKLING GEESE hanging out together. And watch out for your 
personal safety, people are hunting from the swan pen today.
