Below is an email distributed to Carroll County Bird Club members related to the observaton of a Barnacle Goose at Piney Run on 12/30.  That's all the info I have.  Of course the prove nance of these birds is always an issue.

Subject: Barnacle Goose at Piney Run today. 

Hello All 

There is a Barnacle Goose on the northeast side of Piney Run today; He was mix in with some Canada Geese. There were also two Redhead ducks in the same area, mix in with a lot of Hooded Merganser (male and female), Ruddy, and a few American Wigeon. The back of the lake had Canada, Black ducks, Mallard, Ring-Necked ducks, Bufflehead, Ruddy ducks, Common and Hooded Merganser, and a few American Coots. There was one immature eagle that flew over, and two set of Pileated Woodpecker making themselves known (along with a few Kingfishers).
