[Ontbirds]Greater Snow Geese - Long Sault

[Brian.Morin at pc.gc.ca]

Late this afternoon there was a large flock of Canadas on the ice along hwy
2 at Long Sault (west of Cornwall) A good count put them at over 12,000.
There were also 1,800 Greater Snow Geese with them in a single group and an
additional 100 overhead closer to Cornwall.

The river is frozen on the Canadian side except for an area of fast water
at Long Sault. The shipping channel (on the American side west of Cornwall)
is now open but with broken ice.
