This morning, at 7:45, I discovered a seasonally-challenged white-phase Snow Goose at Maumee Bay State Park near Toledo. It was wandering around the grass and sand near the inland lake (which is near the main beach area). I watched and photographed it for a while, then switched my attention to a nearby flock of gulls and terns. When I turned back to look for the goose a few minutes later, it had disappeared. The boardwalk at Magee Marsh was very quiet, with the only highlight being a Prothonotary Warbler. A Solitary Sandpiper was nabbing insects from a large puddle in the parking lot. I posted a picture of the Snow Goose on the umich photo-sharing site: _http://www.umich.edu/~bbowman/birds/se_mich/photos.html_ (http://www.umich.edu/~bbowman/birds/se_mich/photos.html) Darlene Friedman Novi, MI. ************************************** Get a sneak peek of the all-new AOL at http://discover.aol.com/memed/aolcom30tour ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
