Having failed to find the Ross' goose during its sojourn in Fairport
Harbor, I went to the US Grant elementary school late Monday morning.
It was recess time and the flock of geese was not present. Looking for
suitable habitat for a flock of geese was easy; there is a golf course
adjacent to Lost Nation airport. I quickly found the flock which included a
Ross' goose. My use of a scope during a snow squall attracted some
attention, and I learned from several workers that this "white goose"
had been present for at least a week.
I successfully relocated the cattle egret and then spent an hour
trying to find a little gull at Eastlake but was unsuccessful.
There were very many red breasted mergansers and Bonaparte gulls
but nothing else notable.
