[Maine-birds] New geese: Greater White-fronted and Snow; continuing Cackling, Thornhust Farm, 12/4.

Hi all,
Despite a reduction in overall Canada Goose numbers recently, a new influx of geese has clearly arrived. As of 9:30 this am, there is the THIRD GREATER WHITE-FRONTED GOOSE of the season (this one appears to be a speckle-belly-free immature, although there was some white on the face...it waddled out of view before I could confirm the age). Also newly arrived are two SNOW GEESE (one adult and one juvenile, the first of the season here). Meanwhile, at least two CACKLING GEESE are still present.
