Along Sunnyside Ave this morning (~9 am), just east of Rt. 1 (on the ag
field to the south) there was a mixed flock of Canada, Blue and Snow
Geese.  I was not able to stop for long nor was I able to see the whole
flock as part of it was over the hill.  Maybe our Ross' Geese friends
are still around in such flocks?  In any case, this year I have seen
snow and/or blue geese in three locations in N. PG County.  Prior to
this year I had not seen snow geese here.
