A summary of the "lone white geese" reported by Tennessee eBirders
during the winter of 2010-2011:
Snow Goose: 13
Ross's Goose: 3
Broken down by regions -- Snow/Ross:
West TN: 4/1
Middle TN: 3/2
East TN: 6/0
Most reports of Ross's Geese now are of multiple birds; in west TN
sometimes double digits. Perhaps with the increase in numbers, the
classic image of the Ross's Goose as the "lone white goose" has
passed away.
