 I saw a Greater white-fronted Goose at Sandy Point this morning with a flock of about 175 Canadas, on the grass between the small boat launch parking lot and the bathhouses.  He lifted as easily as the canadas when startled. He is definitely smaller than any of the canadas and has substantial belly barring and white around the orange bill.  It was still there when I left at 7:30 am.  I took several pictures and they show all the features.very well.
