RE: [Maine-birds] Re: Pink-footed Goose at Salt Bay

I also checked there twice checked there twice today and did not find the pink footed, did see the 29 Canadas, a bunch of Black ducks on the west side of Oyster creek on the salt bay with one northern pin tail drake. Met Anne and  Merle ARchie who were headed to find the Gyr. Hope they got lucky. Checked Rockport Harbor - no murre. Robin R Robinson

Geese were grazing in the field Don mentioned, until a walker strolled right into the field and flushed them. Probably no coincidence, but this group landed in the small field across the street from Bay View Farm, one of the first places the PFGoose was seen (Dec 24).
