[Ontbirds] Greater White-fronted Goose, Lambton Shores, Jan 4

Hey,

Although not rare in fall anywhere in the south these days, a single adult White-front persists in North Lambton, a good bird for January. 

Today I had it flying over Northville Road, about a km west of Thedford, with 2200 Canadas. It has been wide ranging and has been seen at the Port Franks Marina / harbour (along Riverside Drive) a few times - best bet is dawn / dusk when the Geese assemble.

Cheers,

James H.
