[Ontbirds]Snow and Ross's Goose - Long Point

[Mike Boyd]

Dear Fellow Birders,
To add onto the flurry of geese sightings this fall, I just had 53 Snow
Geese and 1 Ross's Goose at Long Point. Of the Snow Geese about 40% were
blue phase, and the flock was a mix of adults and young. This is probably
one of the largest flocks of Snow Geese recorded for the Long Point area.
Directions: Exit the 401 at Hwy 59 and follow this south all the way down to
Lake Erie. Just before heading down over the Big Creek marshes, turn right
(west) on Lakeshore Rd.and head about 4km west. The geese were in a corn
field at the east end of the houses that are across from Lee Brown's Pond.
