This afternoon when I stopped in the park after a bike ride, there were lots
of Canada Geese on the north ball fields. I went home, changed bikes and
grabbed binoculars. Pretty careful counting indicated there were 298 Canada
Geese, then about 8 more landed. I'm not sure if they flew from another
part of the park or from the other end of the ball fields, either way, that
is a lot of geese.
Mixed in with them were the Greater White-fronted Goose, two Cackling Geese
and the white domestic goose that hangs out with them and flies off when
they do.
The fields have been re-opened for use and three baseball players were
already practicing hitting and shagging flies.
