I found the 4 cackling geese today that John had amongst the flock of 300+ Canada geese in Leroy Township, Lake County yesterday.  The birds remained in two pairs that hung around with different goose flocks.  I watched them for about an hr. from 1-2PM today.  They were very actively feeding on the backside of a pond.  Their very short bill really stuck out.  Good comparisons with the other geese.  Also had 4 American pipits and 1 Coopers Hawk.
