The GREATER WHITE-FRONTED geese mentioned in Bev’s Milford Point report moved to Short Beach in Stratford, and they are now with a ROSS’S GOOSE according to Stefan Martin.

Furthermore, Aidan Kiley has reviewed photos of GREATER WHITE-FRONTED geese and determined that they are a rarer western race, with very few records in our state.
