Observation details

At west end of pond. Very similar to what was reported yesterday, it flew away to the east at 4:26 with about 20 Canada Geese. Original photo attached. It is certainly far easier to spot a Ross's Goose amongst Canada Geese compared to trying to find one amongst thousands of Snow Geese!
