The Cackling Goose was seen again this morning at Shelby Park in Nashville. To
access the lake with the goose and a host of domestic waterfowl, exit I-24 at
Shelby Avenue and take this road (Shelby Avenue)several miles south into the
park. Proceed down the hill, and the lake will be on the left. There are
about 100 Canada Geese in the flock with the Cackling Goose, which is roughly
half the size of the Canadas. It is quite tame, and will allow close viewing
for photos. There were also about 50 Ring-billed Gulls on the lake today.
This is the same lake that attracted a Ross's Goose several winters ago.

Terry, please either post on tn-bird or let me know whether you saw the goose.
Somebody from Chattanooga wants to know.
Thanks,
Jan
Start the year off right. Easy ways to stay in shape in the new year.
