You only had one snow goose?   It must have been lost or injured.  In a 
couple of weeks we will be heading to Bombay Hook and Chincoteague for our annual 
"snow goose fix" and I can hardly wait.  The sight of literally thousands of 
those beautiful birds lifting up from the water, or coming down in flocks, is 
the most exciting natural event I have ever witnessed.  Just absolutely amazing! 
 But they would not make a nice back-yard visit.  A small flock of Canadas 
makes such a mess - imagine thousands at one time.  Auralie
