Four Canada Geese and one Snow Goose October 20 2002, after taking off from an inland pond.  Canada Geese are seen regularly, usually in small numbers (1 to 10), and in all months but July and August, although most often during winter and early spring.  Snow Geese are far less common, but they may have been overlooked.  These birds, immatures particularly, are difficult to spot when they are resting amongst large numbers of gulls roosting at the inland ponds in winter and spring.  The most Snow Geese seen at one time was four - two adults, two immatures, all white morph - which stayed at the same pond for two weeks in late December 1999 and early January 2000.
