[Thomas Hunter <opiehunter@xxxxxxxxx>]

Earlier today, I met Bob Riggs while out birding and
he told me he had seen 6 Greater White-fronted Geese
at the "Mudhole" at Elk Garden in Russell County. I
drove to the area and just as I parked I saw geese
flying overhead. There were 6 Greater White-fronted.
They flew overhead, circled around, flew overhead
again and then circled a third time. They flew off in
the general direction of Hidden Valley Lake.
I had great looks as they passed directly overhead at
tree top level.
