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.
