A duck hunter,  scoping for hunting season, stopped by and reported seeing 3

Sunday 11/13
Around 5 pm, I scanned a large flock of Canada Geese from the dock - 1 White 
Snow Goose and 1 Dark adult Snow Goose were in the flock. The White Snow Goose 
flew upriver shortly after I saw it, but the Dark Adult remained with flock. It 
was still there as daylight faded.
