Some friends and I were doing some work on the Winter Bird Atlas today
(Sunday) and stopped at Lake White in Pike County (Delorme 78D1). We
found a couple thousand waterfowl. Most were Canada Geese and Mallards
but we also found 5 Cackling Geese. We got great looks at them through a
50 power scope and got to compare them closely with Canada Geese and
Mallards. We also saw American Coots, 3 Tundra Swans, American Black
Ducks, American Wigeon, Gadwall, Northern Pintail, Ring-necked Ducks,
Redheads, Canvasbacks, a Common Goldeneye, Ruddy Ducks, and a Hooded
Merganser. Most of the lake was frozen but there was open water near the
eastern end of the lake which is nearest the dam.
